Programme
Match against the Aularians (St Edmund Hall, Oxford), Huntercombe GC.
This is always a very enjoyable fixture with teams of 12 playing singles stableford. Coffee and bacon rolls on arrival followed by golf and lunch.
Cambridge Inter-College Alumni golf competition, Gog Magog GC.
The expectation is that there will be 19 or 20 colleges playing this year.
Teams of six with a maximum WHI of 28 for both men and women. Five players will play on the Old Course and one (probably the lowest handicap) on the Wandlebury.
Meet for pre-golf coffee from 9am with tee times from 10:30 to 12:30.
Pre-dinner drinks in the Chapel Garden of Selwyn College at 6:45pm followed by Dinner and prizegiving in Hall at 8:15pm.
The cost of the golf (including coffee, tea and biscuits, and sandwiches) will be £71 for non-members of Gogs and £16 for members of Gogs, and the cost of the three-course dinner in Selwyn (including pre-dinner drinks) will be £77.
Match against Christ’s College for the Lady Margaret Beaufort Trophy, Huntercombe GC.
Those who played last year may still be harbouring painful memories of Christ’s narrow victory. Hopefully this year will bring a first Lady Margaret Trophy win for the Johnians.
The format will again be teams of 12 playing 36 holes of foursomes.
Cambridge meeting playing at John O’Gaunt GC
As a trial, we will hold the annual Cambridge meeting in September this year. Hopefully this will better suit members for whom the conventional July date clashes with summer holidays.
As some of you may know, the College no longer offer us free dinner in the Wordsworth Room. Instead we will join the Johnian Society for their annual dinner on the Friday night. This will allow golfers to join the programme of events that will be laid on by the Johnian Society on the Saturday (details to be advised). All being well, we will arrange a match against the College staff on the Thursday.
Match against Sunningdale GC.
Date and futher details to come.
