Had a great End of Season Bash today at Old Thorns. Enjoyed by all I hope and handed over the league Chair to Hurtmore for next year. During the day we played simple stapleford with mixed club groupings so we all had time to share gossip between the many many many shots. The day was won by Geoff Spear on countback with 41 points, second Geoff Creedon then third David Passmore. Wrt the first two, Calvera would be proud. ( Look it up – hint …. Magnificant Seven ).

Over dinner the Committee agreed to continue next year with the same format, scoring style and rules but requiring Players to hit at least six drives, so I’ll revise the rules now.

Pyford have now formally joined the league so room for just one more. Please contact Don Saum at Hurtmore GC if you are interested.

Peripatos ( for those who shorthand wasn’t up to it today ) is a fun summer golf society run by Graham Heath originated from Fernhurst village then included Old Thorns with friends from anywhere else. If you’d like to join us look at …. Peripatos GS – Society golf for Fernhurst and Old Thorns golfers and friends ( If the link doesn’t work, just Google Peripatos.

WOW that was close. Old Thorns win the 2025/6 League by ONE point. Or about 1/2 % over Milford. Just shows how good the handicap sysytem is!

Already looking forward to a warm summer and a competetive 2026/7 season.

Pyrford Lakes have now joined the league ready for the 2025/6 season. Dates for that season yet to be agreed but usually the same day as last with appropriate date adjustments.

There’s still room for more if you are interested.

25th March 2025 – details to follow from Trevor.
