CAPTAINS DAY 2024
Many thanks to all those who entered my Captain’s Day competition and took part in the other activities offered. The weather was perfect and the course in fabulous condition, so it was not surprising that the scores were so good. Out of 50 teams, only 1 point separated the top 6 teams! This year, the ladies stole the show with the Ladies Captain, Jane Renton, Ladies Vice-Captain, Mary Ellis, Marie Smith and Sue Williams winning 1st place, and 2nd place being taken by Sharon Rand, Sue Stroudley, Audrey Garnett and Sally Davis. Girl power at its best!
Please find attached the full results for the day.
Although not strictly a charity event, a marvellous total of £730 was raised for The Veterans Hub. Thank you for your generosity to this very worthy cause.
Apart from an all-day BBQ, cakes and drinks were offered at the halfway house, and the putting competition proved to be a very popular event. Gary Walker was the eventual winner of a 4-ball voucher for High Post Golf Club, with a magnificent 22-pace putt. Well done, Gary.
After the prizegiving, we were musically entertained in the evening by the brilliant Ed Hintze and treated to a lovely cold buffet. Although the silent auction was slow to generate interest, at the last minute, 2 of the 3 vouchers on offer were sold.
I am most grateful for all the hard work carried out by the club’s staff and the generous help I received from the volunteers, which made this day such a great success. We are fortunate indeed to have such a dedicated team and, of course, a very supportive membership.
My thanks to you all.

Founded in 1909 – this James Braid designed course epitomises his early philosophy around shot strategies and includes many of his subtle doglegs.
A feature of this beautiful course, bound to strike the golfing visitor, is its situation. Set in the centre of Weymouth yet enjoying magnificent views of the Dorset countryside and Jurassic Coast.
