This week the Warblers were at La Sella on a cold and damp day. We had thirty four Members and one guest Malcolm Monti playing a stableford competition kindly sponsored by Jim Rodgers who supplied a plethora of good prizes “many thanks Jim”.
It was very much appreciated by everyone. Also many thanks to La Sella Golf for their assistance in helping us get off in a decent time.
On a difficult day for golf one player again stood out and winning division one was that man on a hot run at the moment Glynn Braidley (Hcap 8.2) with a great 37pts “well done Glynn”. In second place with 33pts was Trevor Manning (Hcap17.4), Dave Knight (Hcap 9.3) also with 33pts came third losing on countback.
Top Gross prize was won by Steve Smith with an impressive 79 a great effort Steve off 4.7
It was an even tougher day for division two with Peter Gibson (Hcap 22.0) winning with 30pts on countback from Malcolm Robinson (Hcap 24.7) also with 30pts in second place, Keith Tickner was third with 28pts.
