Tuesday 22nd March

Very occasionally everything clicks and today was Roger Cutts' turn, scoring 44 points and getting seven shots knocked off his handicap. Joe Holmes' second place 40 would normally have been enough to win. Twenty seven played.
Joe Campbell has received the consignment of new shirts and sweaters. Cheques can be made payable to the "Sandpipers" or cash to either Joe or John Dixon.

Club Diaries

The new diaries are available for collection on the table at the entrance to the locker rooms.
They contain membership stickers so care is needed opening them.

Thursday 17th March

Wall to wall sunshine today. David McCrum won with 39 points and Ivor Nelson second with 38 in his first proper game since a long lay off. The team sheet for our home match against Workington is on the notice board with the unusual situation of having four reserves. It will be posted here next week.

Tuesday 15th March

Today's strong north east wind was a reality check for twenty five competing for the Bernard Keighley Bogey Trophy. Only seven scored level or better making Geoff Scott's and Tony Davis' +3 exceptional efforts. Geoff won the trophy with the best back six.
