A hardy bunch of 7 Burgesses and the Clerk took part in the Annual Burgess Golf Competition at Hazelhead Pines course on Wednesday 20th September. Conditions were very wet underfoot, and it rained for a vast majority of the round so much so that play was abandoned on the 16th green.
The winner of the Quaich for a third time was Paul O’Connor, who tied with Clerk Garry Stevens with 32 stableford points, but on virtue of scoring one point more than Garry on the inward 7 holes was declared winner (not that Garry….the writer of this article, is bitter or anything!! -well done Paul)
Congratulation to Paul on his win, and there followed an excellent meal at the Park Café.
Next week sees the Burgesses take on the Incorporated Trades at Deeside Golf Club on Tuesday 26th September for the Friendship Trophy for which we are holders and hope to retain!
