Over 50 seasoned golfers played despite the forecast of poor weather which never arrived to participate in the annual showdown between the Senior Captain and Vice Captain. Amidst a sizable audience and a four-legged friend, the freshly appointed Captain, Trevor Fox, and Vice Captain, Dave Archibald, teed off at dawn, both hitting shots on to dry land.

The esteemed trophy was awarded to Trevor, who emerged as the inaugural champion, and is expected to showcase it prominently in his home, subject to Lynes' approval, of course. Trevor expressed his gratitude to all participants and singled out Bill Myatt, a former Captain who had set a high standard during his tenure.

Thirty-three Seniors made their way to Mickleover GC to contest the 2022 Away Day in a competition comprising of eleven teams of three. Eight points separated the top five prize winning teams with places five to seven being decided on countback. Seniors’ Captain Bill Myatt made the presentations to the prize winners. A big thank you goes to Barry Hubberts for devising the competition and preparing the match cards and Paul Burch for negotiating such a good deal with Mickleover GC.

Apart from a little rain, the weather was kind to us, and the course was perfect. Better still, the staff at Mickleover were very accommodating and did a fine job of looking after us. A really nice touch was to open the halfway house for us to enjoy biscuits with a cup of tea or coffee all for the price of a donation. A fabulous day with fabulous company.

# This Year Druids Heath is the venue for our Away Day on Thursday June 8th
