Blyth Golf Club kindly hosted our Junior Summer Open on Monday 7 August. We had 22 players vying for the Best Nett and Best Gross prizes. Nairn Barclay won the best gross with a level par 70, with the best nett going to ShengAo Duan with a nett 69. Well done lads.
Without wanting to overshadow the two winners, the big story came with the last group on the course, where 10 year old Harry Ovenden (pictured) had a hole in one on the 16th hole, using a 6 iron. Well done Harry on your remarkable achievement, we are all delighted for you.
A big thanks to Steve and his team at the Club for hosting us today, we really appreciate it- please pass on our thanks to the catering and greens staff.
We have 2 more Junior events this year, the U14/16 Strokeplay at Backworth on Sunday 3 September and the Autumn Open at Newbiggin on 30 October. These events are open to boys and girls, there is no handicap limit. We look forward to seeing you.
