Strawberry Hill Ladies match result
Well yet another Hole in One at one of our matches, but his time it was the opposition turn to get one Orla on the 17th hole....

It was our annual match against Strawberry Hill which we all enjoy. yes the course is short and the ladies get an advantage but we get great company and an excellent meal afterwards, what more do you want from a golf match.

This year we played greensomes, which is a format that we haven't played in the society for a number of years, Orla explained how it would work before the game but still one group decided that they would play a different format (no names mentioned).

After much checking of scorecards BAGS came out as winners with 232 point to Strawberry Hill 216.

September day meeting at Sand Martins

Well a welcome return to Sand Martins, the course was in excellent condition which should have meant for some high scores...

The morning started with 9 holes of Texas Scramble which gave everyone a chance to warm up for the 18 holes singles after lunch, by this time the wind had got up a bit which made some of the longer holes seem a long way away.

Well the scores weren't as high as expected with the winner being this years captain Roger Woof who seemed to be the exception regarding a low score coming in with 38 points, in second place was Jeff Thomas on 33 points and 3rd place on count back was David Lynch with 32 points.

Following the golf we had an excellent meal followed by prize giving, well done to Malcolm on an excellent day and hopefully we will back to Sand Martins again in the not to distance future.

Flybe match result
Yet another new venue for our annual match against Flybe who managed to get some of their players from the past to come along to Lilley Brook golf club in Cheltenham.

This proved to be a very hilly course and add on a bit of rain and wind it made the match more of a test of stamina than anything else, but the course was in good condition and it was green, something we haven't seen for a while.

Well the first day was the pairs and this was quite tight with BAGS coming out with a 4 - 2 lead, after golf it was a move to the hotel next door and an enjoyable dinner followed by plenty of drink.

Day two started with a hearty breakfast then onto the singles, even thou the pace was slow BAGS again won 8 - 4 giving an overall result of BAGS 12 - Flybe 6.

Well our hole in one trophy which hasn't seen the light of day for a number of years has now had its third golfers name added to it this year, with Jeff Brister holing out on the 17th hole.

Army Day Meeting Report also Captains Day
Well done to Malcolm in getting yet another new course for the society, a few members had played it before, the weather had changed from the previous weeks to be quite a bit cooler, but no rain, the course was dry but played well.

We started with a new team game which tested a few members with their maths but in the end we got a result which on countback had Jeff Thomas, Surinder Kalsi and Chris Walker as the winners with 47 points.

After a much appreciated lunch it was 18 holes for the President Cup, this went down to three players all coming in with same score, but the winner was Jeff Brister with 37 points, second place John de Rebello and third place Joe Tiwana.

Following the golf we had an excellent meal and then prize giving by Roger who also gave a small present to all those attending.

Calcot match result
Well lets start with the positive things, we had a full team, we had a great brunch, then the start time was changed which disrupted our players (that's the excuse I heard).

The course was firm to the point the cracks were larger than your hand, but the greens were excellent, firm and fast, now lets get onto the score, well we lost 6½ to 1½, which didn't dishearten the BAGS players as we all enjoyed the day and company.

RPGS Match Result
BAGS and Richmond Police match ended in a draw on Wed, 30th July at Milford GC.

Highlight of the day was a hole in one by our Vice-Capt Colin Griffiths on 15th hole.

Unfortunately BAGS ended up with 2 players short on the day for different reasons, so a good effort and we retained the match trophy.

We started with 9 holes starting on the 10th so we had the climb up to the 13 hole early in the round, the course was in excellent condition with fast greens but still some good scores coming in for the morning.

After a different lunch to normal at this course it was off for 18 holes, again some really good scores being posted with eventual winners being Colin (Vice Captain) Griffiths and Stephen Collyer with 65 points, second place was Prince Chambers and Lincoln Dowe with 64 points and in third place with 63 points was David Lynch and Paul Lawrence.
