2021 Season Divisions Members Announcement
How do chaps, trust you're all polishing your niblicks in readiness for the very long awaited new Season!
With our first Event at Antrobus less than 2 weeks away, for your information, the 2021 Division Membership split is proposed as follows:
DIVISION 1
Alan Dennis, John Doyle, Andy Fitzpatrick, Bob Stewart, Chris Sullivan, Colin Newell, Gary Chapman, Ian Stevenson, John Chapman, Peter Moffat, Les Hornby, Dave Obermuller, Danny Parr (13 Members)
DIVISION 2
Bob Sneddon, Carl Ambrose, Colin Hodson, Colin Lewis, Darren White, Graham Leasor, John Robinson, John Roche, Jon Rutland, Mark McNally, Peter Batey, Sean Ellis (12 Members)
We've had to tweak the promotions from Division 2 a bit due to the departure of a couple of Members, and there are also a couple of potential additional new Members in the wings, who will automatically join Division 2 and bolster numbers, so we are hopeful that the total Membership will creep up to 30 again, which is our target.
Good luck to everyone for the Season ahead, let's have as many of you as possible at each Event to make it a memorable year and get a bit of positivity back after the trials and tribulations of the last year or so.
Replacement Event at Lee Park
OK folks, Mr. Doyle has only gone and done it, we now have the replacement Event for Leasowe booked in for the Society, at Lee Park on Sunday July 18th, see the Events section for all details.
This means that we now have a full compliment of 6 Events for 2021 booked in, thanks to the tireless work of J.D., well done Doyley, brilliant stuff, so we can therefore look forward to the 2021 season in full!
All we need now is to swing the rust off, get Gertie Goose vaccinated, and we're away.
Revision to Events Dates 2021
Aye, aye, me hearties, hopefully we're all getting our little pricks as the vaccine rolls out and dreams of golf get closer to reality.
So, to give a swift update to our proposed 2021 Season for your diaries, the first Event scheduled for Leasowe has been cancelled and will hopefully get dropped into next year's fixture venues.
The second Event, scheduled for Vale of Llangollen, has been rearranged for Sunday July 11th and the details have been updated in the Events section.
Finally, Mr. Doyle is endeavouring to slot in a replacement Event for Leasowe at Lee Park, however, we have yet to confirm this one, so watch this space.
As golf courses and driving ranges are planned to re-open on March 29th, we should be able to start shedding the rust off that swing at least.
Oh and don't forget to make that appointment at the Barbers, I've just booked mine...
Hawkstone 2020
Well, if ever a weekend's golf away in the best of company was ever needed, it was certainly this one, the year of the Covid!!
Once again, I think it's safe to say that a memorable time was had by all.
The two courses were in great nick after recent rain, the Championship course was a bit wet, but the Hawkstone course was absolutely spot on again. The weather Gods were mostly kind and the accommodation and food were top notch.
A huge vote of thanks again goes to John Doyle, John Chapman, Bob Stewart and Graham Donnelly for making all of the arrangements and organising another very successful trip away.
Well done to everyone who picked up the NTP winnings, and special mention for Gary Chapman who won the Saturday Stableford Comp on the Championship Course and then made it a clean sweep by also winning the Sunday Pairs Comp with Danny Parr on the Hawkstone Course.
Another host of great memories made and we will be returning in 2021 to have another bash!
