Play times on Tuesday and Saturday are 9.30 until 11.30. Please arrive at 9.20am. Play on Wednesday is at 1.00pm - arrive at 12.50. During summer, Wednesday play starts at 5.00pm.


Competition
Congratulations to Richard Parks, winner of the club championship, and to runner-up John van der Touw. Richard played very well, winning all his games against some tough competition. Our sponsor Ryman probided the entrants with show bags, and the winners with drink flasks, much appreciated.
