👏 Closely followed by:

🥈 Anselm & Mary Molloy

A huge thank you to our sponsors Blevins Franks Spain, Keystyle Properties, Selling Sunset Spain and The Great Golf Company Balsicas for their continued support — we really do appreciate you helping make our events so special. ❤️

We’ll see you all back on the terrace on Tuesday for more golf, laughs and the usual EVGC craic! 🍺⛳️

🌅🥓 EVGC VALENCIA LEAGUE – THE EARLY BIRD GETS THE POINTS! 🏆⛳️

There are early starts… and then there’s an 8am shotgun at Alenda Golf! 😳😂

Our EVGC Valencia League team were up, dressed and apparently functioning at an hour when most sensible golfers were still firmly tucked up in bed! ☕️🥱

Thankfully, Mrs Cox came to the rescue with the most important part of the morning – breakfast! 🥓🌭🥖

Bacon baps ✅
Sausage baps ✅
Coffee from Patrick ✅
Navigation skills from the Captain… ❌😂

According to our Valencia League Captain, the morning went something like this:

🕗 “Ok, so I got the 8am tee time slightly wrong! That was early!”

🧭 Neil & Tony were sent to the wrong tee…

🚗 Laffers was almost misdirected off for a completely different course…

📝 Patrick may have been put down twice – although with the form he’s in, we’ll happily have two of him! 🔥😂

But despite the pre-breakfast confusion, the team got their heads in the game and came away with a fantastic…

🏆 2½ – 1½ VICTORY! 🏆

Two points in the bag! 👏👏👏

A brilliant team effort from everyone representing EVGC at the stunning Alenda Golf Course. ⛳️

Huge thanks to everyone who played, to Tracy for keeping the team fed and to Patrick for keeping the coffee flowing! ☕️❤️

And to our very own JP…

Next time, perhaps check the tee time BEFORE setting the alarm! 😂😂😂

What a team! 👏
What a result! 🏆
What a breakfast! 🥓🌭

EVGC – we may not always know where we’re going, but we usually know how to win! 😂💪⛳️

⛳️ EVGC ON TOUR – LAS COLINAS! 🇪🇸

A change of scenery, a different course and a trip to beautiful Las Colinas Golf & Country Club didn’t stop our members from producing some incredible scoring! 👏

Set in a stunning 330-hectare valley in southern Alicante, Las Colinas is an award-winning championship course – and what a pleasure it was to play! 🏌️‍♀️🏌️‍♂️

🏆 Congratulations to our winners:

🥇 1st – Mark Stringer
🥈 2nd – Robin Sutton
🥉 3rd – Wes Sheldon

Well Mark… that handicap is going to be taking another cut! 😂✂️

What an amazing day out! A huge thank you to everyone who came along, enjoyed the golf and made it such a brilliant EVGC Away Day.

🏌️‍♀️ Tuesday Team Waltz at EVGC! 🏌️‍♂️

Another fantastic Tuesday out on the course with some great team golf and plenty of smiles along the way! ⛳️

🏆 Congratulations to our winning team:

🥇 Tim Parsons
🥇 Gary Cooper
🥇 Jane Prosser
🥇 Mark Earwaker

👏 A huge well done to all four!

And, as always, a massive thank you to our sponsors Keystyle Properties,Selling Sunset Spain,The Great Golf Company Balsicas and Blevins Franks Spain for their continued support of EVGC. 🙌

It’s a busy week for us, with an Away Day at the beautiful Las Colinas on Thursday. We can’t wait to get out there and enjoy playing this stunning course! 🌴⛳️

There is ONE SPACE AVAILABLE if anyone would like to join us — first come, first served!

⛳️ EVGC Saturday Stableford ⛳️

Another great day out on the course yesterday! The summer temperatures were a little kinder, while some strong gusts of wind brought welcome respite from the heat — but also added an extra challenge for our members and guests. 🌬️☀️

There were some super scores once again, with very little to choose between the prize winners.

🏆 Congratulations to:

🥇 1st – Steve Hughes
🥈 2nd – Paul Jarvis
🥉 3rd – Muriel O’Flynn

👏 Many thanks to our sponsors Keystyle Properties, Blevins Franks Spain, Selling Sunset Spain and The Great Golf Company Balsicas for their continued support of EVGC — it really is appreciated.

It’s been another busy week for the society, with lots of emails and messages going out as we head into some of the busiest weeks in our calendar. A huge thank you to everyone who has replied so quickly — your support and cooperation make organising everything so much easier. ❤️

And there’s plenty more golf to come! Next week, alongside our usual Tuesday and Saturday games, we have an away day at the fabulous Las Colinas Golf & Country Club. ⛳️🏌️‍♀️🏌️‍♂️

We’re looking forward to another week of great golf, good company and plenty of fun!

In Memory of Keith Postlethwaite

It is with great sadness that we remember Keith Postlethwaite, whose sudden and untimely passing has left a huge sense of loss to all who knew him.

From all of us at EVGC, and from the wider El Valle community, we send our heartfelt condolences to Keith’s beloved wife Karen and to all of their family at this time.

Keith and Karen were wonderful ambassadors for El Valle, helping to shape and build the community we know and enjoy today. Keith will always be remembered as an important part of the El Valle story.

Keith was also a much-loved and popular member of EVGC. Since the sad news, so many members have shared fond memories of the times they spent together — stories that perfectly reflect the warmth, friendship and character that Keith brought to our society.

Keith will be greatly missed, but his memory will live on in the many friendships he made, the community he helped shape, and the countless happy memories he leaves behind.

Rest in peace, Keith.

Our thoughts, love and deepest condolences are with Karen and all the family. ❤️

From all your friends at EVGC

🏌️‍♀️ Saturday Stableford at EVGC 🏌️‍♂️

There’s definitely something in the water at our Treasurer’s house… 💧😂

Shame he can’t bottle it, because judging by today’s result, everyone would want to buy it! Another incredible performance and another finish at the top of the leaderboard!

🏆 Congratulations to today’s winners:

🥇 1st – Patrick Seeber
🥈 2nd – Lars Eikeland
🥉 3rd – Julia Wilkins

👏 A huge well done to all three, and thank you to our wonderful sponsors Keystyle Properties, Blevins Franks Spain, The Great Golf Company Balsicas and Selling Sunset Spain for their continued support.

📅 September is already looking very exciting!

Our EVGC calendar is packed, and this week we’ll be revealing some very exciting details about our Club Championships, taking place over the weekend of 12th September.

Expect an incredible competition, a rather special gala night with entertainment that we will ‘Never Forget’, and a very generous sponsor who is helping make this one to remember.

🤫 All will be revealed very soon…

Keep your eyes peeled! 👀
