RESULTS - Medal Competition at Floraville on Saturday 8 March 2025

Lovely conditions at Flora Ville for the quarterly Medal competition and the players appear to have coped better with the format than earlier in the year. Well, 1 person did for sure, and that was me as I managed to play competently and won the event with a net 72 (gross 90). There's no photo of me below as I had to shoot straight off but you all know what I look like. Instead here's a pic of James Taylor-Alford, who handled the presentations, celebrating winning some wine in a Lucky Draw. I think it makes up a little for one poor hole that messed up a fabulous second nine.

The Flights were won by Tad Han (76), James Taylor-Alford (75) and Mike Muehleck (74) whilst the Team Competition was won by Fireballs this time. The tweak to the scoring system appears to be doing its job of keeping the league close. We have decided on the dates for the 3 inter-team MatchPlays to run alongside the regular individual events. They will be on 26 April at Vintage, 14 June at Subhapreuk and 11 October at a place yet to be confirmed.

Full results from the event are shown below. Congratulations to all winners.

Our next event is the Annual Pairs weekend away at Lotus Valley on 22 and 23 March. Registration for that has been open for a long time and the organising is nearly over. 1 more pair needed to help make the groupings perfect so if you want to play please get in touch. My quiz (general knowledge and music) is likely to make an appearance on Saturday night!
