Captains Blog – October 2022
Summer golf has been and gone for another year, we had one of the driest periods in living memory.
Almost all of us moaned about fairways not being a true test of golf and almost unplayable, well what a change now, a bit damp under foot.
Despite what weather and wildlife as thrown at us this year, our greens have recovered well and are looking set for this winter, well done Rob and his team.
Champion of Champions dinner was a success again, many thanks to all who helped to make this a great night.
As per normal our winter league started a week late due to rain, I think this may be the 5th time on the trot.
Congratulations to Mike Ferguson for organising a great day out at Kirby Muxloe for AGC seniors, organised so well he won his own event.
Officially our slope rating will change on 14th November 2022 but AGC board decided to bring this forward so winter league would play on the same level all year.
FYI
White tees – 119 to 130
Yellow/Reds tees 121 - 127
Competition Winners
