Played on a fabulous spring morning, the Packer Cup, a greensomes, HiLo event, was won by Nick Carter and Ian Mills with 46 points.
Phil Spring and Allan Thompson were runners-up, just one point behind, with Roger Webber and Barry Watkins third with 44 points. A very high-scoring event played in perfect conditions.
The Ladies’ Karen Nicholls Foursomes event was keenly contested in changeable conditions. Full wet-gear was needed for a while and the rain made putting very interesting.
However, despite trees, bunkers and ditches figuring in the game, Glynis Slater and Cath Levell won the gross trophy on 92, whilst Diane Ramsay and Janice White won the nett trophy on 73.5.
A good turnout at the Ladies’ monthly stableford competition saw Chris Gee win with 36 points. This was run in conjunction with the Bronze division Barlow Cup qualifier, and so she will represent the club at the County Bronze Open in August. The Bronze runner up was Kathy Lane with 31 points.
The Ladies’ League teams were busy with an Inter-League away at Tall Pines which saw the home club win 4.5 to 2.5. The Alliance team played at Clevedon and secured eight points, with four team members winning their matches.
