On the 25th. May over 30 members and guests competed in an Individual Stableford Competition at Font Del Llop and the 2nd game of this year’s Eclectic at the course. Despite a stiff breeze at times, conditions were good which contributed towards the generally good scores achieved on the day.
Although not to everyone’s liking, in view of the number of ravines and expanses of water that have to be successfully negotiated when teeing off on a number of holes, Font Del Llop is a fair test of golf to both novice and experienced golfers alike.
After the game we returned, as usual, to the Lo Crispin Tavern, where welcomeTapas was eaten and the day’s prizes awarded.
