TEXAS SCRAMBLE AND CAPTAINS' DRIVE IN

The sun was shining today as 25 four balls made their way to their tees for the Annual New Year's Day Texas Scramble played on the 2nd of January. As the weather was a balmy 7 degrees, we were all able to play to the full greens which were excellent to putt on for the time of year. 

Karen Collins (Ladies' Vice Captain), Trevor Smith (Men's Captain)
and Anne Harrison Smith (Ladies' Captain) before play!

The top three winners were:


After the scramble, everyone came in for a very welcome breakfast before gathering on the terrace to cheer the two new Captains on.
