Carlisle Match Result

We couldn't have wished for a better day to host our first match of the season and Captain Trevor Wilson together with playing partner Mike Mapleton got us off to a winning start against Carlisle's Captain (and former Sandpiper) Doug Welch.
Most of the rest of the team followed suit to record a 7 - 3 victory to carry forward to the return match at Carlisle.
Octavia and David supplied a super meal to finish of a very pleasant day.

Thursday 24th March

Shirt sleeves weather today and David Barnes made the most of his loan of Bernard's Yonex driver to win with 38 points. Harry Wright's 36 earned him second prize.
The majority of the remaining 23 scores were described as c**p.
Next Tuesday's team sheet is on our notice board and will be published here tomorrow.

Self Explanatory

Dave,
Would you mind publishing the following on our weblog as it didn’t seem to bother Terry, as it wouldn’t as he always goes out first.
For those Sandpipers that were not aware, for the second time in not too many weeks a rogue ball appeared in the chute. Today it meant that the last fourball became a three ball and consequently had to wait on virtually every shot for the full 18 holes.
Extra vigilance will be needed to see where this ball is coming from, or a different method of collecting the balls prior to the draw may be needed.
Somebody may think they are being clever, but I think they are being very childish.
Cheers
Trevor

Tuesday 22nd March

Today's Bogey competition wasn't played in the warmest or calmest conditions but David Low pegged away quietly to come in +3, beating Roy Williams on the back nine. This was eclipsed by Jeff Smith with an incredible +9 against the CSS of 69.
The team for next Tuesday's match against Carlisle is on the notice board and should be published here by the weekend.
