Wallasey Golf Course November 2019


Wallasey November 8th 2019

27 members of the Victoria Society enjoyed a wonderful day at a chilly but sunny Wallasey GC on November 8th.  It was a real treat after the wet weather of previous days and the course was in immaculate condition with fast greens and plenty of deep bunkers. The course was a credit to the greenkeepers of Wallasey.

However scoring was not easy and the winner of the Alan Bleeze Memorial trophy with 32 points was Treasurer Peter Watson.  Second and third on 30pts after countback were Ian Robinson and Paul Stanson. NTP was won by our guest the Head Greenkeeper from Wigan GC Paul Walker, with a shot that ended up 12” from the hole.  Needless to say no one bested him.

The longest drives were won by Chris Edwards and Nuala Robinson and 2’s were scored by the aforementioned Paul Walker and Steve Jones.

We enjoyed warming drinks under the watchful gaze of Frank Stableford, to whom we raised a glass, and then dined on a lovely curry and apple pie and custard, before heading home after a very satisfying day.
