23 members and guests from Alfie’s GS travelled to El Valle GC for the November meeting and to compete for the Committee Cup. Our Committee Cup was introduced a few years ago to allow members of the committee to donate a prize to today’s golfers.
The weather was perfect. The course, although generally in good condition, there was evidence that it had been over-played, leaving the greens and tee boxes patchy and uneven at times.
Our overall winner from the Gold Division (on count back) was Gary Armstrong with 32 stableford points. Gary won a €25.00 Meal voucher sponsored by the Keg ‘n’ Kitchen.
Second place in Gold Division was Neil Campbell with 32 stableford points.
Neil won a €12.00 Meal voucher sponsored by the Keg ‘n’ Kitchen.
Our winner of the Silver Division was Ian Harkness with 31 stableford points.
Ian won a €25 Meal voucher sponsored by the Keg ‘n’ Kitchen.
Second place in Silver Division was Esa Partanen with 30 stableford points.
