ARE YOU FREE ON A THURSDAY AFTERNOON?

We are very short of players in the Thursday afternoon drives and it would be much appreciated if you could come along and support Ray and his group.

The afternoons are attended by players of varying standards and everyone will be very welcome.

You won't need a partner, because, not only does Ray run the drive, he always acts as host too.

Please come!
