This will be a big weekend for the club and we expect strong fields on both the Saturday and Sunday.
The Saturday event will be fourball stroke, and a singles stroke will be played on Sunday. Entry forms are in the pro shop or on the website and must be in by next Wednesday, August 19.
Players should note that no tee times can be booked online. At this stage there is no final decision on whether it will be a one tee start, or shotgun start.
Entries are also available for the Spring Classic, on September 12 and 13. These are in the pro shop or on the website.
Last Saturday the conditions were challenging after plenty of rain for the stableford event, won in A grade by Peter Seely with 39 points on countback to Magnus Aitken. In-form
