Congratulations to Corinne, who was the winner of the Ladies (being the only one!), and was also the overall winner, with 43 points!
The Men did give chase, but weren't quite close enough! David and Emile (40) both did better than their handicaps, but the rest of the field, Frédéric, Simon, Paul, James, and John lagged somewhat.

The sending out and processing of annual subscriptions put a heavy burden on the Club’s limited (and mainly volunteer) administrative resources. Changes in Membership status or categories, when they occur after the initial fee request has been sent out, lead to “double work”. This happened last year for almost 40% of our fee requests.
To help us improve efficiency, we would like to change the process this year and capture as many changes as possible ahead of issuing fee requests. Please let us know by June 30th of any changes in membership category that you wish to make for you or any member of your family; e.g., changes between Social and Full. Please email your changes to .
Please note that category changes that are simply due to age are handled directly by the system and no request needs to be made in this case.
Many thanks in advance for your help with this.
