Hello golfers,
With Christmas now less than 10 days away there has been plenty of festive activities at the club in the past week. Along with the Family and Club Christmas Dinners there has also been the Christmas Party night all of which have been very well supported.
This week both the Vets and the Ladies sections held their Christmas events with some excellent golf and very "Christmassy" outfits on display! Winning the Vets Baker Brown Cup was the pairing of Russell Swann and George Iles who returned a superb 45 points, winning by two from Bill Goldsmith/Andrew Burchell and Eddie Bolton/Ken Horton. The Ladies placed slightly less emphasis on the Golf and more on the theme of the day which was Christmas Jumpers. The winning entry came from Nudene Hepden, Diana Randall, Cathy Graves and Margaret Yorke with their homemade creation!
As we reach the end of the year the weekly emails will be taking a short break over the Christmas period with the next one scheduled for Wednesday, 6 January. Please find at the end of this email the tee reservations until then, if you require more information please check either the diary on the club website or contact the professional shop on 0208 393 580.
We look forward to seeing you at the club soon and would like to wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
