    • January Medal results.

  • The January Medal competition took place on January 7/9/10/11 over Seafield golf course from the RED tees and following course closures, combined with lack of access to tee times, only 7 participants were able to complete the event. 7-time Club Champion, Alan Smeeton fired the best gross round with birdies coming at holes 3/4/7/8/10/13/17 on his way to a fine gross 65. Unfortunately, Alan then had to add two shots back on as he finished with a nett 67 and outside the podium. Ian Young and James Burnett tied on nett 65 (4 under par) but by virtue of his solitary birdie at the last hole Jimmy finished 2nd on countback. Our clear winner this week with a nett 61 (8 under par) was Ronnie Lees whose round included birdies at holes 5/7/10/12/17 as he triumphed by 4 shots and also qualified for the end of season Medal Final event in September.

    • New Year Competition results.

  • The New Year competition took place on December 31/Jan 2/3/4 over Seafield golf course from the RED tees and only 9 hardy souls braved the cold, frosty conditions, temporary greens and the wrath of loved ones for playing at this time of year. We had four players vying for the 3 podium spots with all 4 shooting scores better than par i.e. more than 36 Stableford points. Tied on 39pts were Ronnie Lees and Club Captain, Gerry Cavanagh with Ronnie firing a solitary birdie at hole 14. However, birdies at holes 5/7/17/18 meant Gerry pipped Ronnie on countback. Runner-up with 40pts was James Burnett who will no doubt rue the triple bogey 7 at hole 8 on the outward half. This week's winner was Ian Young with 41 pts which included birdies at holes 1/17/18 as he triumphed by a single point.

    • Christmas Competition results.

  • The Christmas competition took place on December 24/26/27/28 over Seafield golf course from the RED tees with a dozen golfers braving the variable conditions which included temporary greens and freezing temperatures. In 3rd spot was one of our newer members, Kyle Bendall, with 36pts including birdies at holes 6/18. Runner-up this week was Ian Young also with 36pts with his solitary birdie coming at the last hole as he pipped Kyle on countback. Our clear winner this week with 39pts was Past Captain, Ian Speirs whose inward half of 39 strokes, three over par, equated to a massive 24pts to give him a 3pt margin of victory.

    • Winter League 3 result.

  • The third leg of our Winter League was due to take place on December 17/19/20/21 over Fullarton golf course from the RED tees. However due to course closures on the first of our playing days, less than 50% of the field were able to complete their rounds and with golfers unable to secure times on the third playing date, the event was abandoned. The event now becomes a best three rounds from four as a consequence with Stephen kelly currently leading by 3pts from Gerry Cavanagh after 2 completed rounds.

    • December Medal result.

  • The December Medal was due to take place on December 10/12/13/14 over Seafield golf course from the RED tees. However due to course closures on two of the 4 playing days, less than 50% of the field were able to complete their rounds and so the event was abandoned. If space can be found in the calendar the December Medal will be re-scheduled.

    • Winter Aggregate 3 results.

  • The last of our Winter Aggregates took place on December 3/5/6/7 over Darley golf course from the RED tees with poor weather and a lack of tee times contributing to the lack of competitors playing. In 3rd spot was Ian Young with a nett 74 (+2) which contained 3 double bogeys and a disastrous 9 at the par 5 last which ultimately cost him a better finish on the day. Runner-up this week was 7-time Club Champion, Alan Smeeton whose nett 74 (+2) contained birdies at holes 13/17 as he pipped Ian on countback. Our clear winner this week was Vice Captain, Scott Kirk with a fine nett 68 (4 under par) which contained birdies at holes 3/8/12/15 as he triumphed by 6 strokes. The overall competition saw only 4 players able to complete two scorecards with Scott Kirk triumphant on 2 under par as he relegated Ronnie Lees to the runner-up spot on 1 over par.

  • Following 2 incidents where a member was left without a game, the following procedure must now be followed by all players who pull out of a game after the draw has been made. It is now a requirement that the player pulling out contacts EVERYONE PLAYING IN THE GROUP to inform them. This should happen as a common courtesy but clearly has not been.
