2024 Annual HGS v NFU Match
The match this year took place at Stratford upon Avon Golf Club with 12 players per side taking part. A closely fought match meant those of us that had already finished sat nervously in the clubhouse with a team score of 2.5 x 2.5 waiting for the final pairing of John Dornan & Duncan Turner to come in. Thankfully they did a great job and won by a margin of 2 and 1 so for the first time (ever we believe) we retained the trophy. It was a great contest held in great spirit and next year we will try again and hopefully have a team of 16 or 20 players if possible. Please spend next year honing your skills ready to represent the Society in next years match.
That concludes our 2024 season and can I congratulate "the Team" that retained the trophy, Merv for all of his hard work and wish all Members and guests a happy and healthy winter and we look forward to seeing you all at Woodhall Spa next Spring.
2024 HGS Autumn Event
Not necessarily one of our better events (for all sorts of reasons) but thankfully the camaraderie that our Society enjoys "pulled us through". The Cotswold course had clearly suffered in recent weeks and played accordingly and the "over-booking" by Golf Breaks meant our tee-times were not remotely satisfactory. That being said "the Dunkirk spirit" shone through over the 2 x days and some golfers played very well. Roger Byrne (serial winner this year) won the HGS Rose Bowl on Day 1 and then along with Vice Captain George Atterbury won the Sir Frank Newnes Bowls on Day 2. A good time was had by all despite the inclement weather and the comical Hotel/Bar staff. Only our annual match against the NFU is the final event of 2024 when we hope to retain the trophy
