Bob Lynne Trophy

Bob Lynne Trophy

The Bob Lynne Trophy is a betterball drawn High/Low competition always lots of fun and beautifully prepared for by Lynne.

The lovely Trophy Table

 We were 'welcomed' also with mist and drizzle and a strong breeze... some of us were fondly recalling last year's sunshine and afterwards enjoying Bronwen's hospitality because of a wedding at the club.

Brisons barely visible

 The weather didn't stop us and as we continued it improved. We ended up stripping off the waterproofs and ended in tee shirts!

 Eight teams took part and it was lovely to have Jean with us, playing her first 18 holes since her op. Great to have you back!

Captain Sue on the tee

As you can see from the pics we were all wrapped up at the start!

In our group we certainly had a lot of fun; we played (or saw) some lovely golf and we also had our moments of challenge - both golfing and otherwise!

As I left the 13th green I suddenly found myself looking at the clouds and very pretty they were too! It is a slippery slope that!

Much clearer by the 16th!

Countback had to be employed to identify third place... just pipping Antoinette and an on-fire Bronwen were ...

Lindsay and Jane

...with 37 points! 

In second place with 39 points were Fiona and Jayne... 

2nd Place 

The winners were in a league of their own...

...scoring 44 points...

Bob Lynne Trophy Winners

Well played Sue and Frieda - no-one could match you today - a fantastic score - well played!

Many thanks to Lynne for all the arrangements and to Fran for the card marking and as always to Mark and his team for the course. It was a lovely competition.

Other stuff

Mark has put blue forward tees on the 12th, 14th and 18th holes. They are on the tees which we used to use (I daren't say they're on the old ladies' tees!!).

They are for the 36 and above handicappers for use on Thursdays and our internal trophy competitions. Many thanks to Mark and the committee for sorting this. Di is trying to get them approved for our qualifiers too (medal and stableford) but that may take a little time.

Captain Sue has decided not to have a Charity Day on Saturday the 13th October because she has a Charity Coffee Morning on the following Thursday.

That Saturday (13th October) marks a year to Phil finishing his cycle ride in Rome... so Sue has kindly agreed to let me arrange the competition on that day. Thanks Sue and I'll be in touch with details...probably a playing of the Brison's Babes v Tregeseal Tramps comp!

Also, Sue told us on Saturday that Steve is sponsoring a Trophy for our Thursday morning competitions. There will be a winter one and a summer one, beginning in October. Entry will be a one off payment of £3. A record will be kept of our scores on Thursdays and our best two scores will be used to find a winner. Many thanks to Steve and Sue for this!

Good luck everyone playing in the Bronze Div at Falmouth!

And to our League team playing Porthpean on Monday.

We lost our match against West Cornwall on Friday. The score was 4.5 to 2.5 so we got close! Well done all who played.
