Here are the Results for the Week
Monday 11th May
There was no Dawn Patrol due to the Seniors 9 hole Qualifier
Wednesday 13th May 2026
No Dawn Patrol due to the Club Midweek Stableford
Don’t forget winning a team event now means a loss of shot for all players and if there were a second place (20 and over players) they would lose 0.5 each. For 20 or more players, both first and second prizes will be awarded. (2/3 to first and 1/3 to second)

Overall, on countback, Tom Roberton (34) £21. Playing off 3 now Tom you have crossed the £30 winning threshold
