Vale Pat Knight.

It is with a heavy heart that we wish to inform our members of the loss of our fellow golfer and dear friend – Pat Knight.

She will be remembered for her strength and courage in her battle with Cancer. Pat was a positive role model and an inspiration to all.

May she rest peacefully!

New Foursomes Champions Crowned.

Congratulations to Peter Francis and Noel Laman on their outstanding effort in winning the 2023 Mens Foursomes Championships. A solid round of 78 was enough to win by 2 shots from John Anthony and Dan Adams after trailing by one shot with 9 holes to play.

In the nett event Peter and Noel took first prize as well with a 64, with Renato Franciskovic and Peter Hackett 2nd on 65.5 with Larry kent and Les Skarratts grabbing third on a coutback with a 67.

With the interuptions caused by Covid and then the grand floods of the last couple of years it was good to get a chance to contest the Mens Foursomes. The new format of playing the event over 18 holes and on a Saturday saw 52 players get a chance to win the title.

Well played to all those who entered and to our 2023 Champions, Peter and Noel.

The other event of the day was a Medley Stableford with Brad Rimmer winning with 42 points and Brian Bennett 2nd with 39 (which included 4, 4 point holes) and Joshua Martin third with 37.
