North Downs GC Away day - Report
24 October

The weather was atrocious with strong winds and driving rain for most of the day. 25 members and guests braved the conditions with everyone completing the full 27 holes, which in the circumstances was no mean feat.

Nine holes were played in the morning, for a team prize, which was won by Tracy Wright, Martin Wright, Pat King and Tony Archdale.

The 18 hole afternoon winner was Mark Katz (guest) with 35 points, who just beat Martin Wright on the back 9. Peter Cunningham came 3rd on 34 points.

Closest the pin prizes were won by Chris Neary (guest), Mark Katz (guest) and Geoff Foreman (granddad).

The longest drive was won by Tracy Wright, the ladies had a massive advantage on that tee !!
