Presentation Night: a Night to Remember

An entertaining evening awaited Mytton Golf members, family and friends at the annual presentation night.

All celebrated the great and the good of Mytton Fold, who collected their hard won trophies from this year's competitions.

Excellent farewell speeches from retiring Captains; Mick Bryan and Ann Almond. It was with great pride they presented a cheque for £3087 to East Lancs Hospice, well done to everyone that has contributed to the Charity this year.

We wish all the best to Nick Avino and Tarja Wilson, in their year in the spotlight as Mens' and Ladies' Captain. Their first Captains' task was to announce next year's charity; Anxiety UK. A collection box will be in the bar for your sand and water incursions in the coming year, please give generously for your errant shots. 

Nick revealed that for the coming season there will be a new trophy up for grabs: the ''Birdie Trophy'' to be won by the player with most birdies achieved in the competitive season.

Well done to all of this year's Board Winners.
