This sounds good to me, worthy cause and sounds like it honours the charity and the man who created it nicely.

I can book either of those days off work so count me in. I voted for Thursday though not through preference but for fact it gets a whole heap extra cash to the charity.

The poll is no longer relevant, as per post #28 the day is now booked for the Thursday so it’s just a case of cutting & pasting the list of names and adding yours if you can commit.

We had 48 attend last year and I hope that we can at least match that number or better it as its solely designed to remember and celebrate the life of Rick.

Ricks brother & his son will be playing and joining us and further dignitaries will be announced as confirmations are received.

Thank you.

Be nice to see some more names being committed to this event, which isn’t just a meet, as most of you will know and appreciate.

I’ll be doing some more work towards the day now I’ve got a little bit more time, last year was an excellent turn out and everyone said they enjoyed the day & course, so please let’s see your support again and recognise that great forum stalwart, Rickg.

Hi Robin. Any update yet on whether we can bring guests ? Cheers.

Yes, I’m happy to commit to people bringing guests as I have the course fully this time so a shotgun start to fill the bases will be the main target if I can get the numbers, otherwise a 2 tee time start, anything to help those travelling and not prolong the day.

Cheers mate, I’ll get back to you to confirm, but I can probably bring 3 guests to fill a tee slot if it helps you (assuming play is in fourballs again).

What time is it?

A time will be announced once numbers are more apparent so that a format can be decided, once I decide on if it can be a shotgun, 2-tee start or rolling tee times, a firm start time will be announced.

With a few fun things to do prior to teeing off, a meal afterwards along with the presentations, it’s a day out. Quite a few came the night before and stopped over and some stopped the night after also, playing another course on their way home.

Maybe someone would like to promote and organise another course to play on the Friday for those that want to make it a 2-day event.

Have found we're double booked with a family event but of course, in his memory, will continue to sponsor "Longest drive on the dog-leg". Good luck to you all & have a memorable day.⛳🏌️‍♂️

Ok - I’ll wait to see what happens then so can work out if the travel is doable.

If my son in law is posted to Wolverhampton I will probably be ok for this as I’ll have a bed for a night

Be nice to see a few more names committed, Rick was instrumental to the forum and so many meets. This day is in his honor, so it would be nice to see these numbers grow a little...

Keep the updates coming please, I will update some more information regarding the day over the coming week/s, but your outlay is only £40 as it was last year, this is for 18 holes of golf on an Open Qualifying course playing for the Rickg Memorial Trophy and is inclusive of all food before & after.

£20 will go direct to the British Heart Foundation (Karen's choice), so that's £960 immediately based on 48 attendees as per last year, which we look to be a mile away from!

Please support this day, it means quite a lot to me personally and I'd hope it would to some of the forum members who have been on here long enough to have known Rick and played with him on the many meets he organised.

I will be setting up a Just Giving page for this year as I did last year over the next few days, the link will appear in my signature.
