Clubhouse Anniversary Trophy
Sunday 12th June
As Captain at the time of the opening of the new clubhouse on 19th June, 2004, Barry Goldspink introduced a new competition format for teams with 3 players. This was repeated in 2005 and continued since then on a Sunday close to the anniversary. Using Stableford scoring off full handicaps, 1 player scores on each of the first 6 holes, then 2 players on each of the next 6, and finally all 3 players score on the last 6.
Nine groups competed in this
year’s event.
Definitely a competition of
two halves! The morning half was played in warm sunshine with
just a breath of wind. However the players turning up for the afternoon
half were greeted by light rain, rain that got progressively heavier, the
wind picked up and the temperature dropped.
Despite the poor weather the
second and third placed posted competitive scores, but were pipped by the
winning trio of Karen Bland, Keith Goldspink and Brian Goldspink with a score
of 84 Points.
The full list of final
scores were:-
- Karen Bland, Keith Goldspink and Brian Goldspink: 84 Points
- Sam Hardcastle, Paul Hardcastle and Simon Hardcastle: 83
- Shaun Harris, Darren Brown and Richard Harris: 80
- Andrew Dyer, Darren Jennings and Matthew Riach: 79
- Damian Lynch, Janet Hardcastle and Terry Blackburn: 77
- David Bartliff, Paul Goldspink
and Conrad Drake: 71
- Darren Hill, Nigel Bell and Matthew Spink: 70
- Fred Leek, John Lynch and Charlie Tolley: No Return
- Alex Bottomley, Simon Bottomley and Will Tolley:
Disqualified.
There were no winners of the
2's Club, with the winnings rolling over to the June Medal.
