This year our Annual Away Trip took us to the Mar
Menor. We were 23 golfers and 5
non-golfers. We stayed at the Hotel
Costa Narejos in Los Alcázares and played at La Roda and La Romero.
On day 1 at La Roda we played a team game counting the best
three Stableford scores on each hole. This
gave us the chance to get to know the course, ready for day 3 when we would
play Individual Stableford. The winning
team was Tony Dewavrin, Pascal Guy, Jean-Paul Leroux and Gordon Burton.
On day 2 it was the ever popular La Romero Golf Course which
had also been the destination of some of our Away Days in the past. Here we played one of the two Individual
Stableford rounds. The main prizes on this day went to Jean-Paul , best man with 39 points and Pascal Guy, second with 35
points. The best two Ladies were
Marie-Jo and Jan, both with 36 points.
Day 3 saw us back at La Roda for the second round of
Individual Stableford. Best man was Tony
with 36 points and Ray, second with 34 points.
Best Lady was again Marie-Jo with 34 points and Jan coming second with
33 points.
Among many other prizes, there were also prizes for the two best
overall man and lady players of Day 2 and 3.
As Ray, Tony, Marie-Jo and Jan were
the winners and runners up of this category and also in the prizes of the individual competition on Day 3, it was
decided to award prizes for 3rd and 4th place on day 3 at La Roda. Of the men, Eric Pages came 3rd
with 33 points and Pierre was 4th with 32 points. Third best lady was Doris with 27 points and
Heidi came 4th with 26 points.
We all had a great time enjoying each others company, on and
off the golf course. Everybody enjoyed
playing on these two courses, the hotel accommodation was good and the weather
also played its part to make it a very successful trip. See also the photos in the “Gallery”.
