Hillside

Hillside entertains...... Monday, 21st July

21 Captains attending the Hillside Cobra Day on 21st July. 

The weather was a very pleasant 22 C with no rain forecast again! Excellent conditions for playing golf.

Lunch was served in the upstairs function room which consisted of soup and sandwiches. 

Andrew Killeen, the host Captain gave all present a small gift bag, which included - tees, pitch mark repairer, ball marker, Hillside badge and Cobra keyring.

The competition was a Texas scramble off the yellow tees with each team requiring 3 drives per person. As it was a medal comp, would that have benefitted our secretary, Paul Robley and his team - was it too generous? Read on to find out......

There was also nearest the pin on holes 4 and 16.

The teams were: 

Group 1: Andy Killeen, Ronnie Samuel & Ken Gibson 

Group 2: Simon Harwood, Tony Davies & John Jones

Group 3: David Hest, Paul Robley & Dale Kenningham

Group 4: Dave Blake, Keith Riley & Ronnie Turner

Group 5: Mike Robertson, Martyn Green & Joe Cain

Group 6: Paul Evans, Vic Guney & Dave Pennington

Group 7: Alan Acheson, Martyn Croft & Dave Gregson

A great day was enjoyed by all with the added bonus of playing off the championship tees on holes 9 & 17.

We also received a visit from a Chinook Military Helicopter which buzzed us on the front 9......

Following the competition, drinks were consumed on the patio prior to the evening meal.

The competition results were -

1st: - Dave Blake, Keith Riley, Ronnie Turner with a net score of 57

2nd: - Martyn Green, Mike Robertson & Joe Cain with a net score of 58
