Charity Golf Day at Vistabella Golf. 12th September 2024
88 Players in 22 teams arrived to battle out the 15th running of this event. We were blessed with an almost perfect day for golf. It was an early day, 07:30 registration and 08:30 Shotgun Start.
The teams were split into 2 divisions, one for WHS players and the other for Society handicaps. They all played a Texas Scramble, 4 drives each with 10% of combined handicaps. In the WHS Division the winners were Partee Animals – Chris Daw, Billy Thomson, Holy Thomson and Mark Palmer with 57.8, Clarkes Bar 1 were Runners up with 58.3 and Clarkes Bar 6, third, 59.
In the Society Handicap Division the winners were Cheers Bar – Lee Brown, Mitch Jordan, Mark Pollitt and Mark Jordan with 54. Runners up were The Pensioners with 58.6 and Third, Al Sims (1) with 58.8. An enjoyable day was had by all.
The whole event was a great success raising €2000.00, this was split between the two charities, €1220 from entry fees, and the two ladies on Hole 15 Challenge raised over €280 included in the total, also €500 from the Raffle.
