Weekly Golf Results – July 28, 2025

On Saturday we played an 18 hole Stableford event sponsored by Coates Hire. We are happy to have the association with Coates Hire and look forward to their ongoing support. Unfortunately, the player numbers were down due to the inclement weather conditions leading up to tee off and which remained threatening all day. We had 34 brave but enthusiastic golfers teeing off knowing full well this was the last round of Handiskins competition and chasing qualification.

Winner on the day was Chris Downes picking up his maiden 1st prize after just joining and getting his handicap. His handicap was the perfect size as he scored a par stableford round giving him 36 points. Chris had 7 pars in his round so will be looking to build on that form for future events. Second in on a countback was Aaron Gaffey a point behind the winner. Aaron shot a great 81 off the stick in the trying conditions and took the minor podium finish off the ever-present Luke Clyne with Dustin Littlewood also having a 35. Trevor Chatman managed a birdie on the par 34th as he scrounged out a 34 point haul trying to increase his Handiskins lead.

The Handiskins preliminary event ended with the top 4 players set to play off in the final later in the year. Trevor Chatman maintained his lead adding another couple of points to his final tally to end on 108 points. Aaron Gaffey with his solid round jumped into the final with an improvement to his last week score, which had just him missing the final, and had a total of 106. Mel Matthews didn’t improve on her final tally of 104 and nor did Richard Hutchinson improve his 103 but they still qualified for the final. Unfortunately, Col Braeden didn’t play on Saturday and slipped out of the finals.
