Stableford Qualifier
Twenty-four seniors turned out today for Aprils' Monthly
Stableford played in two divisions. The weather held, as forecasted, long
enough for members to get round before the rain and sleet arrived.
As in what
seems to be a common situation there was some confusion in the pro shop with regards to
pairings and tee times. Apparently there was a last minute rush with people
cancelling because it might rain and many trying to get a slot because they had
not entered in time.
I am at a loss as to how we can change matters, everyone
will just need to be patient in the knowledge it always sorts its self out in
the end.
Course conditions were tricky as fairways had been scarified and
the greens continue to be bumpy and slow. No trouble however for Dave Mugridge who was the run away winner of Division
One outstripping everyone with a gross score of 72 and amassing 42 points.
Well done to Nobby Hodder who wins
Division Two with a more realistic total of 35 points.
There are a few handicap revisions to be noted:-
Down Dave
Mugridge Previous 8 now 7
Jeremy Blackburn Previous 14 now 13
Up Chris
Gingell Previous
9 now 10
Peter S-Farr Previous
20 now (embarrassingly) 21
There was only the one Two registered which went to Ian Griffiths
on the 13th hole.

As a post script and following the message from Ian Housham to
everyone on Monday can I take this opportunity of wishing Ian a speedy return to full health and fitness.
Popular
and sociable I am sure he would have been a fine Captain for 2020. Maybe he can
fulfil the role at a future time. Peter SF.
