The Jamboree was held on Sunday 7th July at Burnham & Berrow GC. There were 7 clubs represented, each fielding a team of 4 juniors to play in an individual stableford competition with the best 3 scores from each team being added up to produce a final total. We had teams from B&B, T&P, Long Sutton, Worlebury, The Mendip, Wheathill and Wells. The competition was played on the Channel Course playing the 9 holes twice from different tees for the front and back 9. Conditions were quite challenging with a heavy shower of rain and a brisk wind, not forgetting the narrow fairways and brutal rough of the course! Many a golf ball was lost that day.
The winners were Burnham & Berrow with a team total of 96 and The Mendip came 2nd with 93. Full results will be published on the Somerset Junior Golf website in the near future.
Many thanks to our team of Alfie Sully, George Hutchings, Seb Childs and Jack Legg and to their parents for ball spotting on the day – perhaps as difficult as playing!
Here are the team posing by the notice for the 2025 British Open Qualifier to be held at B&B.
