Welcome to this week's mail, we cannot believe we are now into August and the Ryder Cup is next month!! This week we have been running our junior summer holiday coaching sessions and it is great to see the new youngsters taking up the game and the way those already playing are improving keep it up and we will see your handicaps come tumbling down. We have another busy couple of weeks coming up with Captains and Lady Captains days the US PGA championship as well as the two foursomes championships.
We also have a Callaway demo day

1st Place Master Harry Edwards with 45 points,
2nd Steve Kesseler 42 points,
3rd Master Thomas Sheldon 41 points
4th Tom Strand 40 points.

In Division 2 the winner was Roger Velentine with a nett 70 and in Divison 3 the winner was Dean Legg with a very impressive nett 66, Dean was also one of two members to get a 2 on his card! He and Dave Ives shared the Two's Pot gaining £18.50 to their accounts in the pro shop! Congratulations to all the winners!
Mid Week Medal
1st James Wise nett 65 2nd Richard Pearce nett 67 on countback from Gay Power 4th Chris Howe
The day started badly with only 4 members of the opposition turning up, although it gave us a 4 point lead, it left 2 of our team with no playing partners, my thanks to Nick Miller and Jared Sharp.
The day however got considerably better for Brampton Park Golf Club, Jack Edwards led off and after a hard fought match that ebbed to and fro he finally defeated his opponent on the 18th to win 1 up. Next came Dan Pedlar who took care of business and completed a 3&2 win. Harry Edwards then beat his opponent handsomely 4&3 and with Captain Lewis demolishing his opponent 5&4 we won the match 12 - 0.
This completes our league matches for 2014 and ensures we are division 2 champs, this will also promote us to division 1.
Played 4, won 3, lost 1.
