The traditional way of starting their year as skipper is for the members to gather around the first tee to watch the captains take a drive off the first tee, which is cheered on by the members, especially when the drives go well.

Once again the juniors’ captain out drove the captain with his ball reaching the top of the hill. Following the captains’ driving into office, the captain’s team challenge the secretary’s team to a pairs match play competition.

This year saw 47 players taking part with the contest ending in a 7-7 draw.
