Captains’ Drive-In and Christmas Cup – Useful Information

Lindsay, Bob, Josh and I look forward to welcoming over 120 SWGC members to the Drive-In and Christmas Cup this Sunday.

This being the first event of our Year we thought it may be helpful to provide some advance information on the day, in the hope we can assist the day running smoothly and being enjoyable for everyone.

In a slight change to previous years we will start the day at 9am with our 2018 Captains: Stevie, Jane, Roger and Michael “putting out” on the 18^th Green as we say thank you once again for their efforts and commitment to the club and its members over the past 12 months. We then move up to the First Tee for the eagerly anticipated traditional Drive-In.

Shotgun Start we expect at 9.30am but will be dependent on Putt-Out and Drive-In
