Congratulations to Stu Newland, Dave Bonser and Richard Bursztyn on winning the 3-Man Waltz competition on Thursday the 2nd of January 2025 with a score of 75 points.
The full results are in the results section.
ALL SENIOR WINTER COMPETITIONS
Senior Competition will ONLY be played if 11 holes minimum are open.
All Competitions will be played over the number of holes open on that day
The Pro will have ALL the up-to-date details of that day's competition
Please read the rules that apply from the fixtures list
You can play casual golf if the course is open with less than 11 holes.
It is YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to view the Course status via the Club V1 App on the day to establish whether the Comp will be taking place and over how many holes
New Divisional Handicaps
In the future Division 1 will have 0-12 handicaps, and Division 2 will have 13-36 handicaps. This should balance the number of players in each division. If the numbers become unbalanced, they will be reviewed again.
The new calculation for Yellow Winter Course handicaps will mean most players will receive 3 shots fewer than last year's winter allowance.

SENIORS 7 BALL SNOOKER TOURNAMENT
Monday 13th January 2025
7 players competed for the title of 7-ball snooker champion.
Two hours of play whittled this down to the four best: Steve 'the whirlwind' Wilson who won straight into the final; and, in the playoffs, Paul 'the summit' Northridge, Ron 'the rocket' Tinson and, Kieran 'the hero' Kelly.
In the final, Kieran could not repeat his earlier heroics when he was the only player to beat Steve and lost to the worthy overall winner -
Steve 'the whirlwind' Wilson.
