Another sunny day getting warmer all the time, Summer is definitely on the way and so is daylight savings . Starting this Saturday Night!

This week our club is in the midst of the changeover from Golf Link to Golf Connect, with only single games and no handicapping! We were excited to come out today and find that part of the changeover had happened and we all seemed to have new handicaps , most players getting at least one shot back, so there were some good scores . I am sure you will be disappointed to learn that our cards aren’t able to be processed today and when everything is finished being updated it will not accept backdated cards . So back into it next week.

On the 9th Oct we are playing a Pinehurst and on the 16 th we have our OBE Day which will be a single stableford with our OBE’s being treated to coffee and cake( there will be plenty of cake for everyone!!🍰🍰🍰🍰
