The Monthly Medal competition on the 26th February was played in ideal conditions, after the obligatory delay due to frost on the course. However the 12 competitors failed to match the conditions with second and third places failing to record less than 60 points, which is usually a score which finishes among the also rans.

Nearest the pins: Hole 5 – David Swann, Hole 9 – Alistair Douglas

Third place – Handicap 9.6, Mike Davies – 61.4 points.

Second place – Handicap 9.3, Ray Housley – 60.7 points

First place – Handicap 6.7, Alistair Douglas – 56.3 points..
