The Ladies Spring Meeting Tuesday 24^th April 2018

46 Ladies played for The Spring Trophy and Spring Meeting Prizes.

Ladies President, Kath, had organised the lovely Prizes from Hollybeck Nursery– tubs and baskets full of plants and flowers.

Very appropriate for Spring, which is more than can be said for the weather, April showers we expect, but the “shower” on Tuesday started at Midday and never let up.

We were kept going by the wonderful goodies in the Halfway House, thanks to the bakers and makers.

Although spirits may have been dampened on the course, we were revived after in the Clubhouse, sitting down together for an excellent meal, thanks to Matt, Rob, and Jimmy.

Thanks to all the Committee for their hard work in getting the whole event organised and running so smoothly.

Also thanks to our “honorary members for the day”, Chris Watson and Derrick Lewis in the Halfway House, and Ken Brittain – Super Raffle Ticket Seller .

The greens staff have been busy and although the course was in excellent condition, and looked a picture, scores reflected the difficult playing conditions -  CSS going up to 74.

The Best Nett of the Day, and The Spring Trophy, was won with a fantastic nett 73 by Sarah Rigby. Well done Sarah.

The next best nett score was 76.

Tuesday 26th September was the Autumn Meeting for the ladies. Although the field had fewer ladies enter, we had a good day.

The weather, for a change decided to be kind to us. It remained pleasant most of the day, with just one small shower around lunch time.

The afternoon 9 hole competition was well supported.

We had a good prize table, thanks go to Josie and Hilary for buying the prizes, which this year had a travel theme.

The winner of the Andre Wilkinson Trophy and of the day was Eva Glasby.

Well done to all the ladies who won a prize on the day. I hope you all had an enjoyable day golfing.
