On Saturday 14th October our Juniors braved the weather and played their October Medal. On a really difficult day for scoring, they faced a long course and conditions from glorious sunshine to strong winds, driving rain and even hail! Well done to the juniors taking part, all demonstrated fantastic attitudes and still enjoyed their golf.
The 18-hole division was won by Theo Kirtley with an excellent nett 69, gross 83, continuing his good recent form. Needing a win for a chance of claiming the Order of Merit title, Lewis Foxall put up a valiant effort in 2nd place on nett 73, gross 79. After a tense wait as the scores came in, this left Austin Rogula as the Order of Merit winner for the 18-hole division. Well done Austin.
In the 9-hole division Archie Knight came in 1st place with 18pts, a result which also saw him take the top spot in the season long Order of Merit. Well done Archie. 2nd place on the day went to Theo Dawson with 15pts.
Due to unforeseen circumstances, we only had two entries in the Short Course Division. Given the conditions there were two fantastic scores from Jude Knight, 1st place with nett 27, and Conor Riley, nett 31. Under the circumstances, with the standings being so close, a mutual decision was made to award 1st place in their Order of Merit to the trio of Conor Riley, Stanley Tipping and Jude Knight. This recognises the aim of the award at this level being to encourage regular participation in the group, as well as the fantastic progress all three have made this year.
