Captain's Day Wednesday 10 June 2026

Photos Here

Our traditional (and most important) annual event was back in full flow and found us on the Lakes course with a 2 tee start and a halfway "gazebo" provided by Chris Daynes. Another really good turnout with a total of 48 players, as follows
39 Seniors
8 Ladies
1 Guests

The course was in excellent condition but unfortunately the weather played tricks with a torrential downpour and a lightning threat causing the course to be evacuated, therefore affecting our final groups.

We decided an "average score" per hole was the fairest way to decide our winners, etc

The Roll of Honour was

Overall winner – Roy Sanders
2nd – Donna Knight
3rd – Les Vine

Straightest Drive - Sue Raynor (actually ON the line!)
Nearest the pin on the 2nd – Jim Parker
Nearest the pin on the 11th - John Janickyj

The main winner was the Captains Charity, which benefited from the raffle, the Halfway Gazebo, (special thanks to Deidre Sanders and Joy Wood), and other donations to the tune of £759.

A magnificent effort - so heartfelt thanks to ALL
