Mixed betterball 15th December results
Well what a great time we all had yesterday at the last mixed competition for 2013. The weather just about held out for us although it was quite a grey day day and as we had a field of 24 teams the last few fourballs definitely had a struggle with the diminishing light. Everyone entered into the Xmas spirit - Jane kindly provided us with mince pies and I know quite a few people had hip flasks and "special" coffees to help them along their way. There were also quite a few Xmas jumpers on display and I must commend the Kiddies in particular on their matching "His n Her" Santa Jumpers! Anyway to the results:
1st John Harrison & Jenny Junor 41 pts
2nd Jane Woodward & Kevin McLean 40 pts
3rd Debbie Conder & Joseph McDonagh Brown 39 pts (on c/b)
NP ladies - Lorraine Twining
NP men - David Leadbetter
The nearest the pin on the 18th was arranged at the last minute so my apologies if you weren't aware (I only found out about half way round!) but it was great to have this extra incentive at the end of the round. Thank you to Joe Harris who provided the prizes for this.
Thank you to Gill for all her help with the organising - you've been a great support and I wish you well for next year. Also a huge thank you to everyone who joined in at the last minute due to people pulling out - Molly,Clive, Lisa, Colin, Pat and Joseph. Apologies and well done to Gina who had to play on her own - what a star!

12 Hole Stableford & Christmas Meal
It was great to see such a good turn out for the competition and lunch. The day seemed to be very successful with lots of fun and laughter. There were 44 ladies playing and 48 eating lunch. The large field always means that early tee times have a long wait , but I hope the lovely meal more than made up it.
The golf results were very close with 4 players in the running for third place and a further two for first! We had to look at the Back 9 (slight problem, back 3) and then to the last hole to find our winners.
1st Anne Jenner 25 points
2nd Julie Harris 25 points
3rd Caroline Harrison 24 points
Congratulations ladies and particularly to Anne and Julie ( who played together).
Merry Christmas everyone and happy golfing in 2014!

The Kip Pulling is the summer mixed matchplay competition. This year 19 teams took part and there were some extremely well contested matches.
The winners of the trophy were Sue Stickland & Kevin McLean. The runners up were Rob & Lorraine Twining.
Congratulations to the winners Sue & Kev who were able to put their disappointment of being runners up the previous year behind them. A big thank you from me to everyone who took part and made this such a good competition.

Results - St Anrdews Greensomes 3rd November
It was good to see 12 teams of 4 take part especially as it
was the day after the Captains Dinner Dance and I'm sure there were a few pairs
feeling worse for wear. Eventually everyone got their heads around the format
and a good time was had by all on what was a very fresh autumnal day fortunately
without any rain. This was a team event with the pairs being drawn together.
Prizes were awarded to the 1st and 2nd placed teams and
the best pair. The results were as follows:
1st John & Caroline Harrison, Sue Stickland
and Kevin McLean 77 pts
2nd Diana & Duncan Scott, Elaine Katter &
Norman Kane 73pts
Best Pair was awarded to Carrie & Laurie Beech with 41
pts (Caroline & John Harrison had 42 pts but were part of the winning team)
Huge thank you to Gill Newson for doing most of the preparation
for today’s competition as I was on holiday leading up to the event. Also thank
you Jane for her support on the day.

This competition is always a challenge. It is the only time in the year we take on the course! Playing against the course is never easy; and for most of us the course usually wins. This year for the majority, the course was the victor!
Congratulations to all our winners and particularly to Gill Newson who was the only lady to beat the course this year. Congratulations Gill!!

Mixed Betterball Results - Sunday 20 October
Another successful mixed event with 22 couples taking part. It looked at one point as though the competition was going to be called off due to the torrential rain but as the first group stood on the tee, the sun decided to put in an appearance. Most of us managed to play the round with just the odd shower here and there throughout. My heart did go out to the last few groups who had to play the last 3 or 4 holes during a downpour although I know some members (mentioning no names) found this highly amusing! You really do have to lovethe banter on a Sunday during these competitions!! Anyway despite the weather there were some great scores in and the results were:
1st Sara & Peter Burbridge 43 pts
2nd Georgina Venus & Steve Deacon 40pts
3rd Donna & Martin Chuter 39pts
A huge thank you from me to everyone who turned up and played on the day. I'm sure it was very tempting to call off looking at the weather first thing Sunday morning but we only had 2 people pull out and one was because buggies were not permitted which is totally understandable.It was lovely to see Jeff Alback go out with Jean despite not being able to use a buggy and really good to see them back playing in the mixed competitions.

Thank you!
I just wanted to say a big thank you to those of you that managed to join me for golf, tea and cake to celebrate my birthday.
No it wasn't a birthday with an '0' on the end but I had been planning to hold a coffee morning at some stage, and thought that this was an ideal opportunity to do just that!
We managed 9 holes of golf on the Thursday as it was rather windy and chilly, however, Saturday's weather was much improved so we got a full round in.
I received some lovely birthday cards, thank you and you also managed to raise £52.00 for my charity!
Thanks again!

Lady Captain's Away Day
I arrived at the Tudor Park around 08:15 following a bit of a slow exit off of junction 8of the M20! I had noted the 50 mph signs a few yards back and was just praying that I would be able to get off when I needed to!
Lydia had arrived early so we had breakfast together. I was met by a really helpful Lady who basically took a hold of all my worries for the day and I at last felt at ease.
Our Ladies began to arrive and how wonderful to see 33 of our section take part in the day. I handed out a goody bag and informed the Ladies of the format for the day. There was a very relaxed feel as the Ladies chatted over morning coffee or tea.
At 10:20 the first group set off followed by the ten other groups. The sun was shining but maybe a little humid, alas it was a beautiful day!
On the second tee the Ladies found the bucket full of cans of Pimms on ice and I gather this went down well as lots of you commented on it after your game!!
I got to play with Sadie Millgate and Diana Scott and really enjoyed our round together. The greens were a little speedy but all in all the course was not too bad bearing in mind the amount of dry weather we have had.
After golf we all sat and enjoyed our meal and again it was really lovely to hear the Ladies chatting and enjoying the atmosphere.
There were some great scores in and they went as follows:
Nearest the Pin - Rena Jones
Longest Drive - Caroline Harrison
Mystery Prize - Margaret Barnard - (Secret Holes - top scorer)
Best Team - Lydia Doherty, Carol Eldridge & Denise Farley
Bronze Division
1st - Pat West - 41 points
2nd - Lesley Shott - 39 points
3rd - Stella Pitt - 36 points o/c
Silver Division
1st - Viv Allen - 39 points
2nd - Joyce Paterson - 36 points
3rd - Lydia Doherty - 35 points o/c
Well played to our winners on the day you are all stars, there were some great scores on the day.
My thanks to Lydia, Caroline and Lisa for their assistance on the day!
Ladies I would like to say a heartfelt thank you for joining me on the day and for making it a truly memorable one.
Best Wishes

Mixed Tunisian Results 1st September
Another successful mixed competition with 18 couples taking part which was very good considering a lot of the regulars were on holiday. The results were as follows:
1st Jane Woodward and Roger Woodhams 45 pts
2nd Lydia and Eric Doherty 43 pts
3rd Pat West and Tony Hall 40 pts
Jane Woodward practiced her lady captain skills by standing in for Debbie who was unable to make today and I would like to thank Jane for her support on the day. Also big thanks to Gill for helping with the organisation.
Don't forget we have two more mixed comps this month. The Friendship Cup on the 15th Sept and the mixed Team Event on the 29th Sept. Please sign up for these if you are interested in playing - I will be looking to do the draw for the Friendship Cup at the end of this week.

Bradley Cook Parallel Plate Semi Final
Unfortunately the mountain we had to climb today proved to be a little too high. We were beaten by Redlibbets and that, for this year anyway is the end of West Malling's run in the Bradley Cook competition.
Sue, Lydia, Jane, Kelly, Helen V, Debbie T, Debbie C, Caroline and Jill represented West Malling in the Scratch Team and got through to the semi finals. Jane and Helen, I am sure are both grateful to have had the opportunity to gain experience in public speaking in preparation for their roles next year. West Malling has a strong pool of relatively low handicap players now and under Helen's leadership next year will surely do even better in 2014.
