Junior Section Competition Results

REPORT

Although there were no entries for the 18 hole competition, the 9 hole competition was well represented. This competition is slightly unusual in that the Ward Trophy is awarded to the overall winner, and the August Medal to the runner-up. As there was no 18 hole competition, the Trophy and Medal winners came from the 9 hole competition.

The Junior Section has impressively increased in numbers this year, beyond pre-Covid19 levels. In addition there have been, to date, a total of 19 junior members competing in competitions, with 10 different winners.

The winner of the Ward Trophy was again a new junior member, Lewis Foxall, with a very impressive nett 24. Lewis follows in his brother Harrison’s footsteps as a competition winner this season! Runner-up, and winner of the August Medal was Spencer Picken with a nett 28 – a score which would have won most competitions this season!!

The 9 hole, blue course, competitions are a great introduction to the junior section and a way of meeting other members. (This applies to parents as well!!). Any junior who has not entered so far is more than welcome – the next competition being the Norman Turner Trophy on 28th August. Tee times can now be booked on BRS.

REPORT

Due to Covid jabs, family holidays, double bookings (ie. normal school summer holiday issues!!!) entries for both the 18 hole and 9 hole competitions were lower than normal. As there were no entries for the 18 hole competition, the decision was made that the winner of the 9 hole competition would also be the recipient of the Duncan Evans Trophy.

In the 9 hole competition, all nett scores were below par, which is a reflection of the improvements in standard of golf by all the ‘blue tee’ group in the junior section. I’m pleased to say the competition winner of the 9 hole competition and the Duncan Evans Trophy is one of our newer members Oliver Carter – well done Oliver!
