Conditions      Sunny                        Players               15 members

The club’s first trophy event in the 2023-4 financial year was the Fred Sorenson Trophy ambrose competition.  The day was forecast to be a continuation of 4o-degree heat wave, but dawned humid and a splendid sea breeze arrived about 9 am.  However, playing numbers were down as a result and only 15 members competed in teams of three.  The winners scored two bogeys in the first nine but recovered with help from Captain Tom to score 3 birdies in the second to finish one under the card at 69.  With a combined handicap of 8.5, their net score was 60.5.  Strangely, the teams finished in the same order as their scores.

With many apologies to the declared B Grade Champion Alan Smith, we got it wrong.  We determined the B Grade result on handicap rather than gross score according to club rules.  We (John Campbell takes the blame) should have declared the results as per the attached sheet which will see Alan and John play off for the title with a combined gross score of 187 for the two rounds.  Many apologies for the mistake – the play-off will take place on Friday.
