 7th June 2021 - Victoria Society meeting at

             WARRINGTON GOLF COURSE


At last we have had a Victoria Society Golf Day.  This was at the beautiful Warrington GC which was presented immaculately and was very enjoyable for the 20 members who made it on at lovely summer day.

Some people had obviously been sharpening their games up during the various lockdowns and James Kilduff and Steve Griffiths both returned remarkable 48 points in the Stableford Competition.  Unfortunately for Steve he had a bad back nine (only 23 points) so came second.  Third was Nick Pilkington with 38 points, not surprisingly he thought he was in with a chance of a win.

James says because of work he can only play golf 3 months of the year.  Just as well for the rest of us.  His long hitting was very impressive.  Steve Griffths had a very steady day but 23 points on 9 holes is just not good enough!

Never mind.  Golf, friendship and fun were the winners on this day.  Dave Gant played very steadily except for a first for him on the short par 4 12th.  His drive took an unfortunate bounce into the right bunker, from where he took 2 shots to get out, going straight across the green into the opposite bunker. then he returned to the original bunker for 4 sand shots.......

We finished with a very nice meal served in Warrington GC's dinning room. What a joy to return to some semblance of normality.

Our next match is at Bromborough GC on Friday 2nd July
