Latest News
In this week's newsletter we look ahead to the weekend's competitions and take a look at some stylish golf garb you need in your life as we head into summer. We will also quickly look at Jack's visit to Spain in a rather strange matchplay format after his trip to Portugal in the co-sanctioned event last week. In club news we have been busy with some big events held over the last few weeks showcasing our brilliant facilities here at the club, the short game areas have been rammed with practice sessions, lessons and masterclasses. If you haven't yet joined the full county squads and improved your short game here at Heysham, then you are missing out. Our next short game masterclass will be held on Saturday, 17 June from 9:30am - 12:30pm, more on that later. Sit back, relax and have a flick through our newsletter and we hope to see you up at the club in the coming weeks.
Members' News
You may have heard about our Captain's Social Friday Night Events over the last few years, what you probably don't hear is when the Captain wins his own event. Well step forward Captain Paul Rogerson, who picked up the win in a three club challenge event last Friday. These events are unique, good fun and a good chance to have a few beers. Our next event will be Friday, 9 June, our popular drink n' drive event. This nine hole format includes a few beers spread around the course, the sign-up sheet will go up soon and will be found in the snooker room.
Speaking of events this week we have a double header of competitions with the Albert Barrett Qualifer this Saturday (previous winner) and then Sunday we have the stableford Hill Cup/International event, both of these are single events. It is worth mentioning that anyone looking to play fourball events this week must play after the field has finished, if non-competitors play in the day you must follow the format of the day. We have had two competitions in recent days both complete with full reports on our Facebook page, you don't need Facebook to check these out just follow this link (sense of humour is definitely needed).

Jack Senior Latest
Andalucia is the place to be at the Costa Del Sol Matchplay event, in a format that could well suit Jack on the Challenge Tour this week. A top 32 qualifiers from two rounds will battle it out over nine hole matches during the weekend. As I write this I have noticed a -10 round of 61 is already at the top of the field, our boy Jack has struggled in round one with a +1 total of 72, a low round is needed to make the weekend. Come on Jack!
