JUNIOR CAPTAIN'S DAY

A day run by the juniors for the members. 167 members took part in a Texas Scramble with nearest the pins and longest drive competitions on holes around the course. The juniors operated reception, starting on the first tee and the halfway house with the delights of 'pick-a-mix'!
