We are hoping that we will be able to run our Open Competitions this year. You will be able to apply very soon but in the meantime here are the dates for your diary.

Mixed Open – 20 June 2021

Ladies Open Greensomes – 14 July 2021

Ladies Tria-am – 1 August 2021

One of our members, Lynda Colston, has been awarded an MBE in the New Year’s Honours list.

Lynda has worked at the DWP since 1973 and has been instrumental in the design of mental health training being delivered to around 40,000 staff.

Lynda said: “It was a really nice feeling to find out the work I have been involved with has been recognised at such a high level.

“I am mindful of the many people at DWP who have helped bring this learning to so many people across the department in their work to help customers.”

But in spite of her demanding job involving a lot of travel, she has played a large part in her local church, running a fortnightly Ladies’ Group.

We add our congratulations to the many messages she has received from friends and colleagues.

Kenny, our greenkeeper, has closed the course until further notice.

Our Fun Game went ahead in the mist and the rain. 35 members braved the elements, came in very wet but everyone enjoyed their game.

We had lovely mince pies, shortbread and mulled wine for those of us fortunate enough not to have to drive! The winners were L-R Dianne Parish, Jan Stuart (Vice Captain) and Elinor Hay

This year our Christmas Fun Game will take the form of 3 clubs and a putter played in groups of three over 9 holes. Two scores out of three will count at each hole and each team member must have at least 4 scores counted. A customised score card will be available to each team where each member’s gross score will be entered. After the hole is played and gross scores entered 2 members’ scores will be circled and totalled. When the round is complete the totals should be added and the team handicap subtracted. (It’s easy really)

We are starting at 10a.m. not 11a.m. as in the diary. 

Unfortunately, we shall not be able to provide our usual Christmas catering. However, there will be hot mulled wine and a mince pie for everyone after your game.

This is a fun game to allow us to get in to the “ Christmas spirit” after a challenging year and the opportunity to enjoy fellowship (all at a social distance)  Santa hats and tinsel are to be encouraged!!

The course will be closed Saturday and Sunday because of flooding.
