Just to confirm, I have now emailed the club with "final" details, if anything crops up with anybody please could they inform me straight away so that I can contact the club.
Change to format this year.....I think it will be fun.
Going to play the individual stableford in the morning rather than the afternoon.
The afternoon round this year will be the "team" event. Teams of 3 (I am desperately trying to get one other player to come along so that the numbers work out!).
Stableford scoring, best score of the three to count on holes 1-6, best two to count on holes 7-12 and all three to count on the last 6 holes.
I have played this format before and it certainly adds a little "spice" and banter to the closing holes!!
I will ask everybody to "donate" to a prize fund, say £10.00 each?
This will give us a decent pot to play for, with prizes for 1st, 2nd and 3rd in the individual event, plus a reasonable prize for the team one too?
I hope that this is okay with everybody?????
Looking forward to the day, weather forecast at the moment isn't looking too bad. Possibility of a little rain (depending on which forecast you look at) but hopefully it will be okay.
Course is in fantastic condition at the moment as they held the Sussex Championships there yesterday.
 
All sounds good with me, really looking forward to this.

Thanks again
 
Rob,

Would it be possible to have a later tee off in the morning, as I will probably drive down/back on the day and its about 250 miles each way. Was going to stay the night before but cost and work is a bit mental at the moment.

If not no worries, I should be there before 9.00 either way (just aware that sometimes they close the motorways overnight up north which could make the journey a lot longer).

Thanks

Darren

With the late addition of "Hooper" (Matt) we now have the perfect number for the 3 ball competition.
Great!!
 
I did suggest a Chinese at a restaurant called Yous

I know you did, I thought it was aimed if there were a few of us out, but with Simon not coming now till on the day and Ben not coming this year that only leaves me, it will seem like a date 😂😂

Happy to have a chinky though 👍 means I'll definitely have to pace myself during the day 🍺🍷
 
Will post up groups and teeing off times tomorrow morning. First tee is booked from 9.30am so none of them are too early, but will take note of players who have asked for later tee off times.

Robin I will have to give the Chinese a miss mate...wife has made other arrangements :mad:
