It may well have taken place 12 months later than scheduled due to the worldwide pandemic - but Captains' Weekend at Kenwick Park Golf Club brought a sense of normality back to the place.

Men’s Captain Paul Marsden hosted the Captain’s Trophy, an 18 hole stableford competition where 135 entries enjoyed a course in pristine condition on a perfect golfing day.

Competition was intense, indeed, six players finished with 38 points.

Liam Jaines was declared the winner after a card count back.

Going into the event Liam, by his own admission, was not on form.

But a lesson from teaching professional Paul Spence restored his confidence and his golf on the day was superb.

Also on 38 points and after countback were John Barcas in second, Neil Milson third, Craig Collins fourth, Ron Irwin fifth and James Gilliatt sixth.
