Workington Match Result

Unfortunately the Beck Watchers proved too strong today and won 6 matches to 4. The day itself was a success with fair conditions and a good meal afterwards. Thanks go to our reserves who were able to stand in at short notice and field a full squad.

Tuesday 5th April

A pleasant breezy day for the thirty challengers for our championship qualifying places. Tony Davis led the field with 37 points followed by Jonathon C-Nixon with 36. The entry fee was £2.00 (forgotten by a couple of people who didn't join us in the lounge) and will be made up to £100 for the charity of the champion's choice. Looking back at the record of last year's competition, both the winner and second place were deducted 2 and 1 shots respectively and Geoff Waite remembers being cut 6 shots by George Wright in the 1970's so Tony and Jonathon are in for a surprise.

Allonby Coast Road Closure

Signs are in place indicating the B5300 coast road between Maryport Golf Course and Hayton road end will be closed for four weeks commencing Monday 4th April due to gas pipe replacement either side of Crosscanonby road end.
Alternative routes from the south west are via Aspatria / Westnewton or the narrower Allerby road dropping back onto the coast road at Mealo Farm by turning left just before Hayton village.
