Cowdray Park seniors took a welcome break from their plethora of inter-club matches, 23 so far this season,with their monthly stableford competition.

A total of 92 players took to the fairways, under superb conditions and the overall winner was John Smith with a magnificent 42 points.

In second place was the consistent Chris Hoare with 39, on countback from Allen Sibley, fresh from his victory in the Ham Manor seniors' open the previous day.

The raffle afterwards raised an excellent £168 for the Sussex Snowdrop Trust.

Cowdray Park seniors sent six players to the Ham Manor seniors' invitation, and were rewarded with two players finishing in the first two places in the visitors' section.

Allen Sibley won with 38 points, while Graham Evans finished second with 36. Both received their prizes from Ham Manor's club captain, Noel Moran.

These two scores were all the more creditable as most of the scores recorded were under 30 points on a difficult windy day.

Cowdray Park seniors travelled to take on the Hindhead Stags in their own lair, which is one of the more testing courses they play with heather and bunkers in abundance.

Not surprisingly the visitors were beaten 5½-2½ with the highlight of the day being match manager David Laver's putt on the 15th, which hit the hole at a rate of knots leapt high in the air and dropped back into the hole, stunning the home pair who looked likely to win the hole.
