The winners managed to achieve a -12 for 12 holes in fact the whole field were all within 4 shots and so it was a tightly fought competition.
The winners of nearest the pin on the 4th hole were Jenny Gray & Geoff Yates.
Despite starting off in a heavy downpour we actually finished in the sunshine, and the work being carried out on the greens did not spoil the golf.
The object of the competition was to have a fun game and get people to play with different people than their normal group and judging by the comments we certainly managed to achieve this.
Last Saturday we hosted the prestigious Midland Golf Union County Championship for 2024.
