Captain’s Drive In

I look forward to seeing as many of you as possible this Sunday at 12.45pm to support the Captain's Drive In. This Sunday will also be your last opportunity to buy tickets for the Pro's Xmas Draw which will be drawn after the Xmas Lunch on Sunday and all winners announced by a broadcast mail. First prize is a fourball at Sunningdale Old Course and second prize is a Motocaddy lithium electric trolley plus prizes to 15th place.

Xmas Stableford

100 members competed in the Xmas Stableford, and in tricky frosty conditions! Jimmy Sweetzer won by 3 clear shots with an amazing 36 points, second was Peter Bellion with 33 points and third Jon Yates on countback with 32 points. However, the biggest roar of the day was saved for the Malibu King, Malcolm Lea, who took the spoils and the glory by just a single stroke with 15 points.
