After taking up multiple column inches celebrating the success of the 2018 Hewitt, it is only right that we do report on the 2019 efforts, if only seeking to take up far less in the form of celebratory glow. This yearÕs effort was disappointing. One of the best teams that Winchester has fielded, and defending champions no less came up…

Overall Match Result OWGS 3 – Huntercombe 5 A very pleasant day with Huntercombe in superb condition the day after their scratch Gold Medal, and fine weather to boot. The match was evenly poised after the morning rounds, with both Scott-Maldens managing a point. Teams were slightly reduced for the afternoon rounds, and Giles Payne (Old Furleyite) changed sides to…
All, A gentle reminder about the Summer meeting which is now less than two months away. This is a very enjoyable (depending on the quality of your golf!) day out for all members of the Society. You can choose to play 18 or 36 holes and there is lunch available for those that can make it. As with last year,…

At least this was the right way around as somehow a little rain after lunch seems much less of an inconvenience. OWGS had many regulars in the team but it also included two debutants, Chris Andrew…
The last time that Winchester qualified for the Grafton Morrish was 2013; yesterday that wrong was put right. For those interested (and bad luck to those who are not), the Morrish requires teams to progress through a process of regional qualifiers. 100 attempt to get into the 48 team finals in October. Winchester WERE perennial finalists – and even lost…

Fortunately, however, the result masked a highly competitive fixture, very sociable opposition and a mercurial performance from the weather. With RWNGC shut for play on Thursday and Friday and with c35% probability of no…
