New Patio Area now complete

Lovely job tidying up the patio area in front of the 9th green, looks fab! Great job, great value - thanks Al (Alan Jackson).

Sarah has already put it to great use with the new barbecue, supporting the Barcilon Club Championships 🙂

Enhanced Disabled Access

We have made disabled access to the club much more comfortable for visitors.  We are just finishing the area and have doubled the width of the path and protected it barriers.

Please do not park here unless you require disabled access.  This is a beautiful spot to visit and we wish to make it as accessible as possible.

Thank you

New Gents Lockers Available…

Alan 'Jacko' Jackson is just applying the final touches to the gents changing room.  Outstanding job! We now have 10 new lockers to offer members.

At £45 for the year this represents outstanding value at 87p a week.

We are also offering a healthy push trolley price for members with lockers at just £2 per hire (normal price £3.50 for 18 holes) - save £1.50 per hire.

So if you are looking to maximise convenience - this could be an option for you 🙂

Club Championship Results and Pictures…

Morning All

We had another really close competition, with all the results dependent on the second day, exactly as it should be!
But first a really "great big Thank you" to Jack, Chris and Tom, the greenkeepers, for, despite the torrential downpours during the week, and especially on Friday 27th, managing to get the course in absolutely super condition. Fairways were nicely cut and greens true. Well done indeed guys! ???? ????????
Thank you also to Sarah for laying on an impromptu barbecue on the new patio!
We had eight ladies playing first on both days and Christine Stevens was the outright winner and deservedly so for their section. ⛳
Liz France was the handicap champ - well done Liz!
The Barcilon Cup was won by Neil Martin with 156 gross, just ahead of Luke Tubb.
The Handicap Champion was Chris Thornhill with 135 nett, narrowly defeating Derek Gunning.
The individual Divisional winner was Gary Tubb, narrowly beating Mark Stinchcombe.
As usual the "one prize only" rule was applied.
Next year, despite any protestations, the Barcilon will revert to its earlier position in the annual calendar. ????️
Tomorrow the Seniors Cup & Seniors Plate is taking place, with 34 entrants.
And on Saturday 5th October, we will be playing for the RyderHeim Cup, a multi-mode Mixed event. There are already eight teams of four registered to play, and if you wish to join us, but haven't got a full team, please let Al Bowyer or myself know quickly and we will try and put one together. More details on all the notice boards.
Kind regards to All
Dick
Club Captain.
