With the venue being Coventry Golf Club, competing for the Joyce Nichol Trophies on Monday 17th September was set to be very enjoyable. Weather wise the day started on the cool side with lots of clouds following some early rain, but by late morning the skies cleared and it turned out to be a very warm and pleasant day for golf.
A two tee start had been agreed with the first players commencing at 12 noon. By the end of play, it was evident that many of the field had found it quite difficult out there, particularly the greens, as there were some challenging borrows! As usual though, the cream rises to the top and there were some excellent scores recorded in this Stableford format, Singles competition.
The Joyce Nichol Trophies are rather unique and special as they were originally donated by Joyce Nichol and each winner (Silver and Bronze) have theri signatures engraved on the copper salvers.
