Winners and Runners up nett and gross for 2025

CLUB CHAMPION FOR 2025

Photos above : Our 2025 Club Champion Alison Blair and group photo of Nett and Gross Winners and Runnersup in two divisions for 2025.

We were lucky to get through our Championships after a couple of false starts. We actually had 3 lovely days and the course continued to dry out and look better all the time.

Sadly we ended up with a very small field which was disappointing as quite a lot of work and expense go into organising such an event — we can’t control the weather , we could have waited till later in the year and had the same thing happen again.

Many thanks to everyone involved , our lovely hard working committee, our computer/numbers people , our greens staff and Barry and his team.

Division 1 Gross Winner: Alison Blair 261

Gross Runnerup : Kaye Mills 281
