2025: 4 Ball Better Ball Stableford (19.2.)

Venue:  Bonalba Golf & Spa

This Wednesday we played a team game.  The format was Four Ball Better Ball Pairs, best Stableford score.  We had 10 teams taking part.

 

There were prizes for the best three teams.  It was very close at the top, with only 1 point between first and third place.  Eddy Fagg and Doris Shearman-Earp narrowly lost out with a total of 39 points.

Congratulations to all the winners.
