Twelve Saturday ‘regulars’ then celebrated with their annual Christmas lunch and presentations. Another fabulous year, with so many laughs.

This year’s Annual Presentation and 11-hole Par 3 event will take place this Wednesday.

This year’s golf won’t stop as the Pro Shop hosted summer competition will begin this Friday. Competition days are on Wednesdays and Fridays and all results will be kept in a folder to be located in the golfers’ lounge. No monetary prizes or balls will be added to accounts with all prizes to be collected from the Pro Shop.
