Despite the frost and the temporary greens, the Ladies turned out in force for the Lady Captain's Christmas Competition on Wednesday, 4th December which was won by the team of Hilary Ridding, Annette Bucknall and Mary Gallagher.  Thanks were given to the Lady President who manned the Half Way House and ensured that the cold was kept at bay by dispensing tea and coffee laced with a wee dram!

The Ladies annual Chick Trot took place on Saturday, 1st December and the highly coveted prize was won by Yvonne Gregory after a count back.  The theme this year of the 'Twelve Days of Christmas' was chosen by Hilary Dixon, last year's winner, and the Ladies proved to be very imaginative when devising their costumes! We had partridges, turtle doves, French hens, calling birds, swans as well as drummers, a piper, gold rings, a lady dancing and even a cow that had lost its milk maid!

The OGC B Team played their annual match against the Old Sils B Team for the Geoff Stubbings Trophy. A great afternoon’s social golf had by all  with the OGC team winning by 4 ½ to 1 ½ .

 Pictured are Old Sils Captain Joe Bates with Geoff Stubbings son, Mike, who presented the cup to OGC B Team Captain, Andy Watkinson.
