2020 Scratch Summer Knockout

Hello All

I hope you are all well and enjoying your golf.

Just an update on the scratch section.

We have decided to scrap this year’s summer knockout .We feel it is too soon to start playing matches at clubs .

We are hoping that the winter league will start in October, providing club houses are open and the clubs agree to reserve tee times. I have started this season a few weeks earlier than normal ,this will give us a little more time at the end to play any matches which have had to be cancelled due to the weather.

Hopefully we are able to hold our end of season get together in late March, early April as per the matrix also the same for next year’s Lancashire match ,

Stay safe and enjoy the Golf John Sciarrini
