December 28th 2015

Last Sunday’s Christmas Scramble was postponed due to a waterlogged course. It has been provisionally rescheduled for New Year’s Day if the conditions allow. The times remain the same: draw at 12.30pm & tee off 1pm. The levels of precipitation experienced during the past month has made it very difficult to fulfil all competitions on the fixture calendar. However, it is hoped that a regular schedule will be resumed in early January. This includes a nine hole stableford set to be held next Sunday, January 3rd. Finally, may all members, visitors & friends of the club have a happy and peaceful new year.
