On Saturday 7th October the Juniors played the Ladies Section Junior Trophy. Our Lady Captain, Lesley Powell, was in attendance greeting the juniors with chocolates on the first tee!
The 18-hole Division was won by Albie Carter with 34pts, ahead of three juniors tied on 31pts in second. Theo Kirtley took 2nd place on countback. Austin Rogula came in 4th place to take the lead in the 18-hole Division Order of Merit by 6pts.
In the 9-hole Division, Henry Smith came in 1st place for the second competition running with an excellent score of 28pts. 2nd place with 22pts went to Archie Clacher, extending his lead in the 9-hole Division Order of Merit.
The Short Course Division was won by Ila Marson, parring the last for an excellent nett 35 to win by 1 shot. Conor Riley took 2nd place which saw him move into tied 1st in their Order of Merit, level with Stanley Tipping.
We’ve run a season long Order of Merit for each division sponsored by our Professional, Greg Rogula, with the intention to encourage regular participation. With a maximum 12pts for 1st place it’s great to see all divisions with something to play for as they go into the final event.
Elsewhere, we had three Juniors attend the Elite Squads County training at JCB Golf and Country Club, a fantastic experience with them enjoying the facilities, coaching and playing the course. Leek’s Theo Khalifa won the U14s 9-hole event with a superb +4 gross score.
