68 Players in 17 teams arrived to battle out the 2nd running of this event, Spain District North RBL Golf Day. We were blessed with an almost perfect day for golf. It was an early day, 07:15 registration and 08:24 Shotgun Start.
The teams played a Texas Scramble, 4 drives each with 10% of combined handicaps. The winners were Cavernita Bar – Lee Brown, Bert Gooch, Alex Leach and Gary Pickles with 57.9. Runners up were The La Fuenta Wanderers with 59.5 and Third, The Has Been’s with 59.7. An enjoyable day was had by all.
There was a nearest pin (hole 9) Sponsored by Richard Morgans from Nogrow Grass representing Prostrate Cancer which was won by a player in the last group – Peter Geddes.
The whole event was a great success raising €1415.00, this was split between the three charities, €928 from entry fees, the two lads on Hole 14 Challenge raised €185, included in the total, also €302 from the Raffle.
Many thanks are due to the following:
