Further congratulations to all the competition winners of the summer fixtures and remember that the Winter League starts this Saturday,so grab a partner and get your name down, it’s a good excuse to keep your game in check over the winter period.

Thank you to all who supported Sandra & I on our respective Captain’s Day’s and our Captain’s Away weekends, which were a great success and we raised several hundred pounds for our two charities - Meningitis Trust & Alzheimer’s Society. Please keep up your support for these fantastic charities for the rest of our Captain’s year!

In the 9 Hole Mid-Week League, Hartford secured 2nd place, 1 point behind eventual winners Alderley Edge and 3 points ahead of 3rd place Woodside. Well done ‘Team Hartford’ and to all sections who represented Hartford in these matches and this Sunday we look forward to welcoming Pryors Hayes here for a friendly match.

Photo of the week

Definitely some of our stranger photos of the week! Even when you're the leader of the dark side of the force you need a bit of help with your golf game and Adam Powell was on hand to give Darth Vader and one of his Storm Troopers a few tips on Saturday as they visited our tuition studio, surely there could be a few good captions for these photos, let us know here.
