My Progress
It has been a pleasant start to my winter season being -16 par for my last 6 rounds of golf. As the Summer season has come to a close I have participated in the final OOM events for the North region of the PGA in which I have had 2 top 20 finshes.
Now September is upon us, so is the Manchester & District Golf Alliance. The opening event was held at Dunham Forest where I managed to finish one shot off the lead on -4 behind European tour player Phil Archer.

Major time
Having been taking part in the senior competition for approximately 3 months, youth member Josh Ainscough has landed his first Major title. He partnered Jordan McClusky, who was also once a junior member but left the game for other interests. He has now return to Sunny Stamford and, along with playing partner Josh Ainscough, managed to claim themselves their first Major – The JD Schofield trophy with a blistering score of 10up
