The first game of the year was at La Sella and at eight o’clock in the morning it was very cold, the course was frosty and in some places quite wet, but being the hardy souls that the Warblers are they just wrapped and got on with it, two of our number were sporting shorts, not sure if that is brave or stupid, but it paid off for them by the time we had finished.

The scores were pretty low resulting in a CBA of -2, I am not sure if that was as a result of the temperature or the slick greens, nevertheless on top this week was David French with 33 points followed by Steve Cliffe with 31 and taking third on count back was Michael Taylor with 30 beating Shaun O’Gorman into fourth. Shaun did not have to worry too much about that as he picked both of the nearest the pin prizes and a golf ball for a two.

The next game is at El Bosque on Wednesday the 23rd January with a first tee time of 10.00 so you need to be there for 09.15 to book in. Guests are always welcome with a current handicap certificate. To enter contact Michael on 639242896 or E mail him and the vice-captain. The society AGM will take place on the 24th January at Javea Golf Club with a start time 10.30.
