Away Match v Letchworth Seniors - 25th September 2017

We played our last match of the season against a strong Letchworth side who were able to gain revenge for their heavy defeat last month with a 5/3 victory.

The course was in good condition but the light rain continued to fall for much of the morning.

We had a 3 tee start which enabled all the games to be completed in good time to eat lunch at 2pm and to get away before the rush hour.

The first two matches lost but three good wins was encouraging with Brian Bullen and Algy Grimes winning 4/3 (with Algy playing to about 40 points stableford) then Geoff Beck and Peter Wade also winning 4/3 with Nick Seeley and Graham Court winning 3/1 but that early optimism was dashed with the home side winning all three of the last games even though Robert Anderson continued his recent good form with his first hole in one on the 14th with a well struck 6 iron.

Nearest the pin for JOG was won by Graham Court and Letchworth Seniors Captain Alan Walsh presented Robert Anderson with a sleeve of balls in recognition of the fact that it was the one and only hole in one for his year as Captain.

Bob bought a huge bottle of scotch so everyone could have a drink in celebration of the achievement.

Lunch comprised of an escalope of pork followed by apple crumble which was enjoyed by all.
