Congratulations to John Hawley & Paul (The Shorts) Baker on winning the Seniors American Greensome Stableford on the 12th of December 2024, with a score of 33 points over 14 holes.  

This was our Christmas comp with a Shotgun Start, and It brought back a lot of camaraderie in the clubhouse so we will be looking to do some more of these in the New Year.

Spare a thought for Tony Merrin who was about to play as a late entry favour to make up the numbers. Tony fell on his way to the Tee, resulting in a broken arm (just what he wanted for Christmas). We wish him a speedy recovery and hope to see him back playing golf soon
