BEDFORD AND COUNTY GOLF CLUB
The Captain organized his Captain’s Ladies and Juniors competitions on the weekend of June 26 and 27. There were 39 ladies on the course for the first competition which was an individual stableford. After the event, the captain offered tea and cakes to the ladies in the clubhouse and was on hand to present the prizes to the winners – the top prize of the day went to Lucinda Holden with 35 points with Mandy Martin on her heels with 34 points.
The juniors competed for the Sheppard Trophy where the winner was Oscar O’Connor with a wonderful 47 points, the finalist was Joshua James Thornton with 41 points and the 3rd Evan Scott with 39 points.
Ladies Captain Avril and 27 others headed to the Burghley Park Golf Club for the annual Ladies’ Day. The weather was good, the course very pleasant and everyone then enjoyed a good meal. The raffle – a delicious elephant – was won by Gina Rigby and raised over £ 100 for the charity chosen by Avril – CHUMS. In her enthusiasm for doing well during the day, one lady thought she should practice putting – she threw a few balls at what she assumed was the practice green. She was then rather surprised to see two men approaching – yes you guessed it – she was on the 18th green !! The winners of the day were Avril herself with Margaret Oakley and Rachel Rushton with 78 points, the finalists were Gina Rigby, Jo Doyle and Angie Tatum-Hume with 76 points.
