Sadly the wet weather hit us for the Alan Bleeze Memorial Trophy
event at Formby Hall Golf Club, but 15 golfers did their best to enjoy the day
and to fill the water hazards up with golf balls. Alan’s widow, Jackie, joined us for the ‘dinner
of the year’ after the golf, and presented the minor prizes: longest drive on
the 7th to Mark Starr and nearest the pin on the 16th to prospective
member Dave Gant. As to the main event, Dave
Gant had the best score (33 points) but was ineligible for trophy honours on
this occasion. So .... on 32 points Evan
Bale won the competition, but had to leave before Jackie arrived, so was
presented his trophy by Captain Alex Rugen.
Mark Starr was 2nd on 31 points, with Dave Gibson 3rd
on a back 9 score of 26 points from Alex.
The food and banter was first class, and a tired troop meandered home
after an enjoyable day of VGS golf, capped by those present also eating for those
that didn’t stay for the meal!
