Looe Golf Club

Looe held its annual Mafia v The Club match – a friendly internal event with a meal afterwards – on September 15. The event was thoroughly enjoyed by everybody and was won by the club thanks to a member who had been 'transfered' by the Mafia. On Sunday, September 19, the September Medal was played, incorporating the Morley Medal Winners Cup. In very good conditions, the September Medal winner was G Bennett with an excellent nett 63. Second in Division One was D Allen with a 65 nett, which was more than good enough to win the Morley Medal Winners Cup – he had won the March Medal. In third place came the ever steady Andy Rowe with a nett 68. Divison Two was headed by young S Clark with a nett 67, one better than T Pratt second on 68. Both S Clark and T Pratt now go up to Division One as a result of these scores. Congratulations to them both and especially to S Clark who is still a junior. Third was A Doney with a nett of 70. Again a small entry fought for honours in Division Three, but N Allen triumphed on the day with a nett 72, relegating P Faulkner to second place on countback. On Wednesday, September 22, a fairly new fixture was enjoyed by 12 players. The event was a present and past Captains meeting and ten captians took part with two guests in the form of the proprietor and the club professional. The cup, which the captains played for and which has been donated by John Rowe, was won this year by Tommy Hunn. Proprietor Mike Tilbrook received a bottle of wine for the best guest score. All participants enjoyed the day's golf and the excellent meal afterwards. September medal - overall winner: G Bennett; Morley Cup winner: D Allen.
