Formby Ladies March 14th 2025

 24 golfers turned out on a cold but dry day at Formby Ladies for our opening comp of the year, and Captain Bryan Robinson's first event of the year.  The course was dry after all this favourable weather but the greens were a little lumpy but work has to be done on them sometime.

Newbie Lee Morris started with a birdie on the 1st for 4 points then repeated it on the 7th.  This was the NTP in2 hole and Lee was just 3ft form the pin in 2!  But in the same group Evan Bale hit a huge (straight this time) drive and putted onto the green to within a foot from the hole to claim the prize!  The closest ever!  Well done Evan.

                                            2nd place     Alan Dean      37pts cpo

As usual we had a lovely meal in the clubhouse after a largely very pleasant day.



Nick Pilkington caught this lovely image of the sun setting just as we were about to dine.....


And here's Captain Bryan presenting Paul with the Trophy......and the blobs and biscuits raised £71 for the Captain's charity, the British Heart Foundation.
