It seemed that everyone arrived in their very best (and not so best) pink outfits last Wednesday to celebrate this year’s Texas Stableford fundraiser, ‘Tee Off For Cancer’.

The weather put on a show with mild temperatures and clear blue skies, and it was great to welcome four of our Nine-Holers who joined in the fun! An incredible total of $1105.80 was raised as a result of the purchase of Mulligans, raffle tickets and a very generous donation of $200 by the Veterans golfers. This will now be forwarded to Breast Cancer Trials. Thank you everyone.

There was no Saturday competition held last week.

This Wednesday’s competition will be Single Stableford (secret draw for partners) while Friday will be the ever-popular 4/6 Single Par Round.

Next Wednesday will, once again, be a Single Stableford while Friday will be Round 1 of the 2023 Championships. Let’s hope everyone’s golf is peaking at the right time!
