On a mild but drizzly day, members of the Ladies section donned festive Christmas costumes and played out their traditional Christmas Greensomes over the Gainsborough front nine.

Much to the amusement of other golfers, wearing their very colourful costumes, the Ladies plotted their way round a very soggy course.

Following the golf, there was a traditional Christmas lunch enjoyed by almost 50 members, during which a raffle raised £365 for Ladies Captain Jill Pottle’s charity – Parkinson’s UK.

Competition winners on the day were Sue Gregory and Liz Spencer with 18 points
