Hi Golfers
We're so close to Christmas now so remember we have a wide range of last minute presents and stocking fillers.
Rob Leonard Junior Golf Academy
This weekend is the prize giving evening for the Rob Leonard Junior Golf Academy September to November term. We are having this in conjunction with the junior section. So the juniors with handicaps are playing the back 9 holes whilst the academy juniors will be playing the front 9 holes on junior tees. This is the best way to get the juniors playing on the course so next time you're playing the course have a look for the blue discs.
Before
After
One of our up and coming super stars NICHOLAS BREWER came for a lesson last week. As you can see here in his previous position he was swinging the club a little long and upright this was making him off balance and led to inconsistent striking. The juniors learn and adapt so quickly it's great to see.
Phil Mickelson watch out!! Keep it going!
Trivia.
Last week we had this picture in the trivia. Only Gerry Martin and our captain Tony Burgess got the correct person which was Ian Farrent.
Now as you know who it is can you spot where he is in the picture?
The first 3 will receive the pair of hand warmers free.

Ladies Drive in
The ladies section had their annual general meeting this week with the vice captain and captain being elected.
Pictured is the outgoing captain Lynda Nichol with the incoming captain Ginny St John Glue and next years vice Captain Gill Taverner.
Well done ladies and thank to Lynda for a great captains year and good luck to Ginny St John Glue for next year and the captains drive in on New Years Day.
Turkey Trot
Last Sunday was the Turkey Trot. This is played in pairs, foursomes with only 3 clubs. I think this is about the hardest format of golf. However there were some surprisingly good score considering the cold weather.
Top 4 were
1st Brian and Kevin Luckhurst 38 Points
2nd Tim Bucktin Bill Orford 36 Points
3rd Richard and Mark Willett 36 Points
4th Michael and Bill Pollard 35 Points
200 Club
Last time we told you about the 200 club that is run by John Knock. At Christmas they have a special 1st prize of £1000.
This was also drawn last week when CRAIG DELVES name was picked out here he is getting a cheeky smack round his face from our manager Terry Crump.
Well done Craig I think your everyones best friend at the moment!
