100th Day outing to Broadway Golf Club on 23rd May 2014

The committee felt that all players and partners who attended the dinner had a memorable day.

A big vote of thanks go to all who helped organise the event and especially our Chairman Phil who not only provided a full printed programme for the day, but also a history of the winners of the previous 99 outings, and hosted the evening.Jon Hawthorns team headed by Adam provided an excellent dinner, and the bar staff were relentless in supplying the necessary liquid refreshments. Thanks to all at BGC.

The post dinner entertainment was started with a few verses from our resident Poet Laureate Steve Jordan on the members of our society. Bill Payne gave us an insight on how to play golf on Christmas morning without it costing an arm and leg!!! Our own singing duet of Mike and David rounded off the entertainment with a rendition of 'Our Golf Clubs on our back' to the tune of The Happy Wanderer. Well done lads you all did our society proud.

Unfortunately the weather did not live up to the occasion and all 35 players were subjected to rain for the whole round, albeit that the course held up well but the overhead conditions had an effect on the scoring.

The prize winners on the day were:-

Individual Stableford Nearest the Pins

1st David Morris 37 points 2nd hole in two Russ Ralph

2nd Steve Webb 36 points 5th hole Noel Hughes

3rd Mike Petruzzelli 35 points 8th hole Ray Cordes

4th Russ Ralph 35 points 11th hole in two Noel Hughes

13th hole Bernie Beale

17th hole longest drive Steve Webb

Team Competition

Winners - Maggie McDivitt Malcolm Hedges Bobby Webb and Mike Petruzzelli 126 points

For those not too tired the evening concluded with après golf at The Bell Inn.
