The Captains Day competition has been played last Sunday November the 14th. The weather was a little on the cold side, but with light winds and no rain, so good golfing condition for the season.
The format was a classic individual stableford, and the scores were pretty good, we can feel the effect of the new course rating.
In 3rd place with 38 points we have Geoffrey Beckwith. Second with 40 points the always competitive Brian Taylor. but this time he fell short 2 points to Raffaele Tosellini who is the winner with an excellent 42 points !!!
On Sunday October the 24th, the Chairman/Captain challenge was played on the ESTEC course. The weather was nothing short of perfect, with low winds, and not single a cloud in the sky.
19 participants (one last minute drop out unfortunately) took advantage of the good weather, and joined this competition. The game format was a Fox hunt, a four balls better ball with the par set by the Chairman / Captain team (the foxes).
Carl and myself tried made our best to set the bar high, and have the foxes escape. The par differential was as follow:
