2017: Indiv. Stableford (17.5.)

Away Trip: the best overall scores of days 1 and 2 came from these fine players

There were only 24 members and 3 guests playing today. These low numbers reflected the fact that the society had just returned on Tuesday evening, happy but exhausted, from the away visit after 3, and for some, 4 consecutive days of golf. The amount of golf played also seems to have influenced the very low scores recorded.

However, the away trip was a huge success and scoring on the difficult Mar Menor and Lo Romero courses was more in line with the usual Costa Blanca results. It is quite understandable that many members decided to take a rest from golf today.
The guest prize was won by Len McAllister who was playing for the first time with our society and his 35 points was the best score recorded.
Les Wilkinson won the first prize showing us all that playing golf for 4 consecutive days can have a positive result. Well played Les.
