This years Captains Goblets event was held at the lovely Turton GC last Friday, on a dry day with a bit of sunshine thrown in too (albeit with a bit of a nippy north westerly wind)! It was a tightly fought contest, between 44 Golfers (22 pairs) with the winning pair achieving 41 points, followed by 4 x pairs on 40 points! We were also treated to some “fine dining” at Turton’s “Nicks Restaurant” after our game, in what was a thoroughly enjoyable day. Thank you all at Turton GC & Nicks Restaurant for your very kind hospitality given to us on the day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The match with the Bury Society took place at Great Lever & Farnworth.
Bury having been victorious in the last there meeting were looking forward to four in a row.
A very competitive match was played out in ideal conditions, on a course in excellent condition, resulting in a very close result.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This years inter society match against Manchester captains was held at Deane Golf Club.
The start looked to be a little wet, but it soon cleared and the course was then awash in sunshine.
Thank you for playing in today’s closely fought match.
Feel proud – it was a really great team result, against strong players and fellow Captains.
