With rain expected mid-morning, the late starters completed their games thoroughly soaked and less than pleased. Despite the conditions, the scoring was more than acceptable for this Texas Scramble competition.
The Seniors’ AGM was scheduled for a 2.30 p.m. start, thus giving sufficient drying out time for those miserably wet individuals. A good turnout of almost fifty senior members attended the AGM and welcomed newly-elected, Phil Thompson, as their Seniors’ Captain for 2017.
Our thanks go to outgoing Captain, David Elliott, whose mixture of fun and fair play was widely appreciated. In an attempt to silence the mass of players for the weekly presentation of prize winners, the outgoing Captain miserably failed to master the South African Vuvuzela – he now has ample time to perfect his skills!
