Montgomery League 2018

Congratulations to Llanymynech who have won the league this year. Thanks to Ken Evans for all the hard work he has put in to organise the competition.

Welsh Senior Team Championships

Five Llanymynech members were part of a 6 man Montgomeryshire team which took part in the Welsh Senior Team Championships held at Llandrindod Wells Golf Club on the 2^nd/3^rd September 2018.

The event attracted 7 teams from all over Wales with Montgomeryshire defending the title won last year at the North Wales golf Club.

After the opening round on Sunday with 5 scores from 6 to count a strong Glamorganshire team were leading with an average score of 74.3 from Montgomeryshire who scored an average of 75.6.

Regrettably, the second round was abandoned due to incessant rain so the final results were based on the first round scores, giving Glamorganshire the title and Montgomeryshire runners-up.

For the second year running in this event the Best Individual Gross Score of 71 was recorded by Basil Griffiths of Llanymynech. Other Montgomeryshire team members were Dave Humphreys, Dave Sheppard, Nick Roberts and Sandy Johnston, with Mike Rooke from Oswestry completing the 6.

This event is due to be played at Pyle & Kenfig Golf Club in South Wales next year.
