IN THE mid-weekers' monthly medal competition at Whitstable and Seasalter Golf Club the outstanding game was the grouping of acting captain Trevor Kelly (h20) and current trophy holder , John Aldridge (h13) who took on brothers Ted and Roger Backhouse (h22) in the captain's challenge.

The Backhouse brothers were in commanding form and won the game six and four.

The leading lady was again Di West (h27).

Birdie Prizes went to Ted Backhouse (h14), Trevor Kelly, Neal Hazel (h22) and Rod Whitehead (h11).

Ted Backhouse also won the whisky sweep.

Competition sweep winners were Mike Kelleher (h19), Bob Ireland (h17) and Ted Backhouse.

The main competition winner was Backhouse whose net 57 was well ahead of second placed Albert Adams, 61 points, with Roger Bryan in third, 62.

Ted Backhouse told the appreciative field that it was the first time he had a gross score less than his age!

The final twist in a memorable day was that the trophy that Ted won was called the Ted Backhouse rose bowl, donated by the man himself some years ago.

THE club's Junior section played their monthly medal event under overcast skies and the threat of thunder.

Playing a Stableford over 18 holes, Ryan Kennett and John Aldridge played out a very close contest with Kennett coming out on top by just one point.

He scored 42 points. Third with 35 points was Billy Bills.

New club members are welcome.
