Freshwater Bay Golf club’s newly elected Club Captain Bill Evitts, Lady Captain Paula Burke and Senior Captain Sean Wright were welcomed into office in the traditional manner at the club’s annual Captains Drive in.
Braving the cold weather, the newly elected Club Captain landed…. in the pit. Sean Wright landed in the sand bunker, but Paula Burke saved the day with an excellent shot which just rolled off the back of the green.
The day raised over £500 for the Air Ambulance, and a representative of the Air Ambulance gave a presentation to members about the work they undertake.
The 10-hole Stableford competition in the morning was remarkably close, with Penny Diez and Nick Riby both winning a bottle of wine.
The nearest the peg competition was won by Penny Diez, Steve Orchard and Jason White, who all guessed correctly where the Captain,s drive would land.
