A field of 96 enjoyed the traditional opening
day of the Manchester Captains Society season at Bramhall
Golf Club.
Our thanks go to Bramhall Golf Club for hosting this event
for us; the course was set up in magnificent condition as
always.
Making
the most of the cold but excellent conditions were winning
pair Brian Ashfield and Jack Kendall both from Hazel Grovel
Golf Club who scored a fine haul of 43 points to take the
top prizes in the Founders’ Day competition.
Runners
up on 42 points play off were Ian Wilbur and Brian Holt
both from Turton Golf Club.
In third place after a card play were Peter Oldham and Shush
Aggarwal both from Bramhall Golf Club. A total of thirteen
2’s was recorded – each receiving 2 Society
logo balls.
The day was also the traditional start of the reign of the
new officials of The Society with Alan Preston from Cheadle
Golf Club becoming the new society Captain, taking over
from Irvine Caplan of Whitefield Golf Club.
Joining Alan in the top office is Bill Elliott of Bramall
Park Golf Club who has become the new society President
and David Roberts from Chorlton cum Hardy Golf Club was
appointed as the new Vice Captain.
The Treasurer Ian Brooks from Bolton Old Links was reappointed
for a sixth term.
