White and Yellow Tees

There has been some degree of consternation expressed as a result of the decision to play the Gents Seniors' Medals from the white tees rather than the yellows as in previous years.

The decision to go ahead with this change has only been taken after a great deal of thought. It is designed to accomodate the desires of all members of the seniors and hopefully encourage some of those who do not join us for our Thursday competitions to do so, at least on one occasion each month.

From 2007 onwards it has been the Seniors' Section intention that all singles events will be taken as counting towards the handicapping and maintenance of members' handicaps, not just the monthly medal. From 2008 we intend to play 3 counting events each month, one medal (from the WHITE tees) and two Stablefords ( from the yellow tees), this accomodates everyone's playing aspirations and adds variety to the weekly outing, something which I am sure all of us can appreciate.
