The Summer Meetiing attracted 42 golfers to Newark which was in the throes of reorganisation. The course played better than we expected and the catering was spot on, so we had another good day there.
Jacqui Francis had a terrific day, her 37 points won the Ladies Cup and the Prue Riddiford Bowl, both from defending champion, Sheila Grant. Affiliated member Peter Dignan had an outstanding round of 43 points, but the Handicap Cup went to John Pearce with 39 points pipping Jon Corlett on countback.
Scores in the Greensomes competition for the Sassoon Cups was excellent. Graham Pearson and Jon Corlett were in 4th place with 40 points beaten on countback by Bernie Vickers and Joe Bradshaw. 2nd with 42 points were Ken Agbonabi and Phil Gough. But the winners with a splendid 43 points were Jacqui Francis and Sheila Grant.
