The July away day took place on an overcast day at Ogbourne Downs with seven attendees plus host Christine Mitchell who joined team B at the halfway stage.

With the rain holding out until 14 holes had been completed, the event was won by Richard Edmonds who scored a very creditable 34 points (including 20 on the outward 9).

Paul Needle carded 32 points in second place with Frank Tanner third with 31 points.

Team wise Frank with David Mitchell, Steve Mulford and Christine triumphed by one point.

Richard won the NTP x2 prize on the 3rd.

Christine won with the Longest drive on the last.

Frank the NTP on 15th which was converted for the only birdie two of the day.

The date for the Autumn awayday has been set for Sunday 1st October at Rye Hill with meet @ 11 for a 12:00pm Tee. Price will be £25 for golf & prizes.

In the meantime, the 2018 trip is currently a work in progress.

Factors under consideration include:

1) a possible later date to avoid inclement weather (little chance);

2) a different venue in the UK as the concensus is that we have exhausted Cornwall; and

3) keeping the cost to a reasonable level.

More news will follow in due course.
