Tuesday 14th April

Tony Davis and Joe Campbell both came in with 40 points to head the leaderboard of today's championship qualifier. Dave Wood scraped in for the last of the 16 places with 32 points whilst David Houdini Low's 39 points merits a mention.
The £56 raised from the 28 entries will go to the charity that last year's winner Geoff Scott nominates.

Thursday 9th April

20 members turned up today despite a poor weather forecast. The wind blew a hooley but fortunately the threatening clouds missed us apart from a few drops.
Dave Wood took a well deserved podium position with 34 points and immediately lost the 2 shots he'd only got back that morning. The ancient mariner Charles Tidswell came second with 31 points.
Next Tuesday is the qualifying competition for the Sandpipers Championship and will be played off full club handicaps.
David Low didn't get a mention for his 37 points win the other week due to unforseen circumstances so this puts the record straight.

Tuesday 7th April

The strong wind put paid to high scoring although the sun shone most of the time.
Les Heyes squeezed 30 points out of the course with Jim Gilfillan having the better back 6 for second place with 29.
The Ladies couldn't raise enough players for our match the other week and it is felt by a few that if they couldn't be bothered, why inconvenience those Sandpipers that aren't in the match who would have to play at an alternative time round a rearranged fixture. Comments welcome!!
Much to AP's relief, the new curtains are not tartan.

Match v Carlisle

Despite the sun and wind that should favour links golfers we went down by 6 games to 3 with one halved. Captain Dabber was very gracious in his speech and everyone seemed to enjoy the spirit the game was played in. Hopefully we'll be able to retrieve the lead when we play the return match in September.

Tuesday 24th March

28 members defied strong winds to compete in today's Bogey qualifying competition. The predicted rain held off for long enough to allow all but the last couple of groups to get home dry.
Joe Campbell proved up to the task with a tidy score of +3 with Barry Bower pipped for second place by the better back 9 of playing partner John Gibson, both finishing on +1.
