What a fabulous afternoon in Church Stretton on one of the best days this summer! Warm sunshine, a warm welcome from the staff on duty, and a splendid buffet lunch, one which has to be considered the best we have been served all season - a small rural club, putting on the style.

Tail-end Charlie's, first time outing for Paul Simmonds (left) S&HUGC Secretary, and a welcome return to Tony Sanders from Little Aston GC.

 

Messrs Dibble (L) and Turner (R) receiving the wisdom of the oracle Bob Fletcher who's gesture is neither Churchillian nor quite Spock....but the point was made, both hit good tee shots!

 

And this is how it should be done, Sanj Nandi from Denstone College GC, with the finest swing of the day!

For the first time this season, Regional Captain Ivan Taylor was able to attend due to personal circumstances, and eventually led the team to another win, over the always competitive S & H Captains. 

The match, as usual, was played in good spirit, but on an afternoon as it was, the weather made its contribution to a memorable afternoons golf. It was also good to see the return of members who for various reasons have found it difficult to play this year, and also to new faces, especially Peter Webber, Church Stretton Secretary, and Paul Simmonds S & H County Secretary who responded manfully to a late call for substitutes.

Thanks go to all concerned in the fixture.
