Captains’ Day was a lovely sunny autumn day that saw 50 golfers playing for a team alliance prize that was presented to the winners at the evening celebration. The scores were high but the triumphant team of 4 was an all-ladies team, who returned an impressive score of 99 points. Annette Axelsson together with Sue Brady, Emma Wood and Jodie Lusby, all of whom are new members, were each presented with a bottle of champagne and a voucher. All players were fortified with Pimms and cake at the halfway house, where Amanda Macknight and Jean Ray had laid out a delicious assortment of savouries, cakes and chocolates, provided by the ladies. And just in case we hadn’t had enough to eat, we all tucked into burger in chips in the clubhouse after the game.
80 guests attended the evening celebration, with a disco following a 3 course meal and prize presentation. There was a high party spirit that made it a memorable evening and one of the highlights of my year as Ladies’ Captain. Thank you to all the ladies and their partners who joined in the fun and celebrated with the Captains on our special day. Thank you too to the Ladies Section for the beautiful bouquet of flowers and to all those ladies who sent me cards, wishing me well for the day.
