Hi again, members of Cleethorpes, hope I find you well, no doubt you have all been enjoying our belated summer, back to normal temperatures this week, so a bit more comfortable for some.
The sporting summer continues unabated, with English Cricket success in the 2nd test match at Old Trafford, levelling the series with a day to spare. Let's hope they can open up a lead in the next test and march to a series win.
Lewis Hamilton was at his imperious best in winning the Hungarian Grand Prix, finally moving ahead of his team mate in the championship.
This week see's the last of the golfing major's the U.S.P.G.A. Championship let's hope we see a British win to round off a great summer of golf.
Results this week were, Club Championship played on the 24th July, and overall winner was Liam Bell who re-joined the amateur ranks after a brief time as a Professional. Liam scored 70+72 for a 142 total, 2nd was Martyn Warren with 72+72 total 144, just edging out Steve Bratton who scored 70+74 total 144 on count back. Well done Liam.
The Moss Cup was won by Joe Victory with 2 fine rounds nett 70+67 total 137, as Joe plays off 3 handicap this really was a great performance, It's not often that a player with such a low handicap prevails in this part of Champ Day. 2nd with nett 71+68 total 139 was Gareth Thomas, well played Gareth. 3rd with net 71+69 total 140 was Max Robinson.

We have rearranged the Pro's night for the 17th August, which entails 9 holes of golf, myself, Paul and Alex will walk round offering tips here and there. We then retire to the club house for a Q&A session. Sandwiches will be available, cost will be £6 per person, £1 pound of which will go to the Captain's charity. Hope to see as many of you there as possible, I'm sure it will be a fun evening.
I just wanted to say a thank you to Paul Barker and Jack Evans both of them were here at the crack of dawn raking bunkers and helping to get the course in the magnificent condition it was for Champ Day, despite the fact that they were both playing in the event themselves, I thought it only right that they their efforts are appreciated.
Cheers guys.
