Ladies Invitation - Wednesday 6th September

The ladies have been lucky with the weather again when they held the 2017 Invitation Competition on Wednesday 6th September. 36 ladies from Shrewsbury Golf Club invited a guest of their choice to play a four ball better ball competition on a lovely day – with not a drop of rain all day! The competition was played as a shotgun start, and the smiles on all the faces were testament to a relaxing and fun event. We all sat down afterwards to a fantastic buffet in the marquee prepared by David and his staff. Very many thanks to Sheila Band who organised this successful event!

Monday Mixed Social Golf - 11.09.17

After heavy showers throughout the afternoon, the sun shone for us on Monday evening. Fifteen people turned up to play a nine-hole Greensomes, followed by a meal of chicken or quiche. The winners, with 22 points were Chris George & Celia Russell, followed by Bob Hill & Hilary Fabian with 21 points ocb from Roger Withinshaw & Celia Russell.

Each week points have been accumulated towards The Mumford Cup: One point for attending, plus 3 points each for the players coming first, 2 points for second and 1 point for third. As this week was our last Greensomes, the Cup was presented to the overall winner, Roger Withinshaw, who had gained 46 points across the season.

The last Monday Mixed Social Golf this year will be a Texas Scramble on 18th September at 4.30. The ‘Grand Final’ will be an eighteen-hole Greensomes at 14.00 on Sunday 24th September. The draw for partners will take place next week on 18th September. There are still a few places left!
