One of El Plantio 2’s favourite games is a Texas Scramble team game. On the 13th March, 15 members and one guest formed an ideal number of 4 teams of four. The winning team scored four birdies and thirteen pars with their only blemish being a bogie on the very last hole to win by nearly 3 points.

Nearest the Pins, Hole 2, John Burke and Hole 5, Alan Janes. 2nd, Lawrence Wanty, Brian Coupe, Gary Needham, John O’Brien – H/cap 3.6 – 48.4pts. 1st, Alan Janes, Brian Edwards, Henry Mellor, Mike Davies, H/cap 4.36 – 45.64 points. 

If anyone would like to join our Society, we play at El Plantio Golf Club every Tuesday, Friday and Sunday. We use both courses – the Par 3 nine hole course and the main 18 hole course, so we cater for all abilities. The membership rates are very competitive, so call for more details.

 Anyone who wishes to play in the Society as a guest or join as a new member, contact Ian Henderson on 966 716 616 or 636 116 230.
