 HESVIC Trophy - Friday August 6th 2021

The Victoria Society retained the Trophy for an unprecedented 4th year on the trot after a tight match in difficult conditions.

After going behind early on in the morning fourballs the Victoria Society came back to gain a 3.5-2.5 lead by lunch.  The weather was wet in the morning making for unpleasant playing conditions.

The Society held their nerve in the afternoon greensomes to clinch a 7.5-4.5 overall win.  As usual Peter Watson was over the moon!  The cup was to be found at the end of the rainbow!



 Bromboro Golf Course - Friday 2nd  July

The Society enjoyed an excellent day at the beautifully presented Bromborough Golf Course on the Wirral in lovely weather in July.  The course was in great condition and the greens were suitably tricky.

Dave Gant is in a rich vein of form and won with 44 points, an excellent achievement off his handicap.  He was closely followed by Geraint Short with 43 points and Rene Lock in 3rd on a countback with 42points.  Well done to you all.  A nice meal in convivial circumstances was enjoyed by all.

This is the hole where a Bromboro member made a hole in one! Read Closely!

The nearest the pin competition was somewhat of a non event, in terms of balls on the green!  Here's Brian checking things out!


There were 3 2's recorded by Roger Barron, Bryan Robinson and Dean Straker.  Well done gents.
