There were 4 x 2’s recorded this month, but two of those players didn’t enter the 2’s competition so we just had two winners in the end.

Well done to Gaza Powell and Penny Sadler!

Well played to all the prize winners and thanks to all the participants, our ever present Marshall, ‘Flip Flop Flav’, Noemi ‘The Mask of Zorro’, the green keeping staff and the committee for helping make this competition a success.

We are all looking forward to getting out on the course again, so everyone please take care and stay healthy through this tough period.

Camposol Golf Course

The Golf Course should be much improved by its rest due to the enforced lockdown, although with the restrictions on the movement of labour there is only the Head Green Keeper, Mark Teasdale and one other who only works part time trying to keep things tidy. They are facing a mammoth task battling the weeds that seem to be winning at the moment. After the warm rain we have had they are springing up everywhere.  The golfers will just be delighted to be able to play, exercise and get out of the house to say nothing of the socialising in the 19^th hole.

CGA Charity Quiz

This had to be cancelled due to the Corona virus. It will be re-scheduled at a date later.  The CGA offered to distribute the 890€ held from the last Charity Quiz to FAST and MABS who are still operating to some extent. This was appreciated, but they said they are prepared to wait when hopefully there will be a more substantial amount.

CGA Summer Ball on 12^th June may be cancelled.

CGA Golfing Away Day – Friday 23^rd October @ Mar Menor

First tee 10.32am. Hopefully by then we will be able to go ahead.

We applaud all of you who have adhered to the lockdown and I am sure we will all come out of this stronger.
