The Junior Section at T&P were out in force on Sunday 19th May in 2 separate competitions.
At Yeovil we were competing in the 2nd league match of the Somerset Junior Golf South Division against Wheathill, Long Sutton and Yeovil. There are 3 categories – HI up to 18.4, 18.5-36.4 and 36.5 – 54. The juniors play in a qualifying individual stableford format and points are awarded to the players with the top 5 scores. We had Archie Austin competing in Cat 1, George Hutchings and Freddie Jarrett in Cat 2 and Cooper Baker in Cat 3. They all played their hearts out and we came away with 15 points to put us 2nd in the league at the moment, 1 point behind Wheathill. Here is George being presented with his memento for coming 1st in Cat 2.
2 other teams of T&P juniors were at Saltford GC the same day competing in the Somerset Junior Club Team Championships and also their Junior Open. Alfie Sully, Ben Newman, Morgan Couch, Thomas Gendall, Finley Pyke and Seb Childs made up the 2 teams of three with the best 2 stableford scores in each team counting. T&P were not placed in the team event but in the Junior Open, which ran simultaneously, both Finley and Ben scored 78 gross and ended up 1st and 2nd respectively on countback in the Gross competition which was a fantastic result. Here are the boys being presented with their awards. Well done!
