webmaster Adverse weather meant that we were only able to calculate the results over the first nine holes and, as a result, it was agreed that no handicap movements would be made this month. Connor Till came out on top with an impressive 20 points with Bob Crump and Reg Bonehill completing the podium positions on countback. Kevin unfortunately took the pink shirt having binned his card.
The Chairman failed to challenge the leaders at his own Challenge Cup, but Stewart Adshead found the going somewhat easier as he romped to a seven-shot victory occasioning a four-shot hit to his handicap! The podium was completed by Simon Perks and Dave Allen with Jonny Drury distinguishing himself with a pair of birdies!
Congratulations to Reg Bonehill who won the Captain’s Cup individual event while the Team winners were the “Chairman’s Diamonds” consisting of Garry Elwell, Charlie Elwell, Reg Bonehill and Ernie Watts.
The event raised a total of £1,300 for the Albion Foundation which was a fantastic effort from all involved. Special thanks to Marcel Bennett, Mark Taylor, Steve Meeson, Sandwell GC, Great Barr GC, Wergs GC and Llanymynech GC who all supplied raffle prizes.
Congratulations to Jonny Drury who pipped Kevin Pace with a back nine score of 25 points. Commiserations go to Kevin who would have expected to win with a score of 46 points. Martin Grange completed the podium 3 points back, his second successive third-placed finish.
Congratulations to Ernie Watts for his debut win at Great Barr, where we had another great turnout at another excellently presented course. Cath Warren claimed second place edging out Martin Grange on countback.
Barry Hamblett came out on top at The Vale, edging out Lee Gavin, Tay Kyte and Garry Elwell by a single point. It was another scorcher of a day and the course was in excellent condition.
