Seniors Team Open Competition

The first open competition of 2025 took place at Builth Wells on Wednesday 16th April, with the Seniors Team Open. The format was a team of four, 2 scores to count on holes 1-6, 3 scores on holes 7-12 and all 4 scores on holes 13-18 with 85% handicap allowance.

The golf course was in excellent condition given the very dry weather of the past 5 weeks; the scores reflected how well the golf course was playing despite the cold conditions on the day.

A big thank you to lady members, Dee Rees & Val Rodgers for administering the scorecards and taking entry fees from start to finish
