LATEST CLUB NEWS/RESULTS – Outlane Golf Club

Winter Wheels

As you may recall we traditionally ask our members to fit winter wheels to trolleys from 1st November each year.At the same time we ask you to make use of mats to help protect the surface of the fairways.
Whilst the use of winter wheels and mats is optional, I would like to ask you all to fit your winter wheels from this coming Sunday.
When playing rounds of friendly golf during the week, please use a mat (in particular on the 6th hole) to preserve the quality of the fairways for competition days and Sundays, to help maximise visitor income.

FESTIVAL SUCCESS

Those of you that follow our Professional Rob’s twitter will have seen that the Festival was a big success with lots of favourable comments from our visitors. A total of 126 pairs entered the event.

I would like to thank everyone who was involved in the event starting with the green staff who must have begun mowing greens in the dark to get them done before the first players went out. Thank you Andrew and your staff. Also Caroline and her staff who had a long day doing meals from 7am right through to 5pm. Thanks are also due to Rob who booked everyone in and later ran the junior workshop , Bob Hazelden who ran the tombola and created the leader board as scores came in, and Mr Captain who ran the tea hut all day. Finally I’d also like to say thank you to all the club members who supported the event.

Gillian Goodlass (Club President)

PGA TOUR COMES TO OUTLANE

OUTLANE PUT ON FABULOUS DISPLAY FOR THE HALIFAX AND HUDDERSFIELD UNION

The P.G.A. Northern Golf Professionals Competition was a huge success at Outlane and on a calm day with nice weather it was congratulations to Home Club Professional Rob Booth who won by 1 shot after playing the back nine in only 29 shots and finishing with 4 under par which included an eagle on the difficult 12th hole . The professionals found Outlane a tough course and there was only 4 players who finished under par and the professionals only managed 58 birdies in total whilst the average score was an amazing 76. The P.G.A. organisers were very impressed with the turn out of volunteered Outlane members who helped in the proceedings of every group of players being Outlane attended with a rake each to repair the bunkers when needed and also the ball spotters on certain holes which were needed as four of the professionals went down the ravine on the 4th and five on the 17th

Unfortunately due to the present situation there was no presentation afterwards but the picture is the sponsor Steve Beeby with the winner Rob Booth in front of the clubhouse

A final word came from the P.G.A. who said “congratulations Outlane your organisation and members help on the day has been first class . WE WILL BE BACK NEXT YEAR “
