Girton Golf Club

Saturday brings the start of one of the most cherished competitions in our calendar here at Girton Golf Club.

The Hewett Goblets Round 1 tees off this weekend, and there is real history behind the trophy. Presented in 1978 by Mr and Mrs Harry Hewett to mark the opening of our eighteen-hole course, the goblets were chosen with a beautiful intention in mind — that the winner would actually use them at home, not simply put them on a shelf. Each one carries the engraving G.G.C., and the silver plate on the case holds the names of every champion who has lifted it since.

It is a members-only strokeplay competition off the white tees, and with Round 1 underway this Saturday, players should bear in mind that entry covers both rounds. If any member needs to withdraw from Round 2, please let the Competition Secretary know as soon as possible.

Good luck to everyone on the draw. The spirit that built this club is very much alive in a competition like this one.

It is match day for Girton Golf Club as the team make the trip to Ely City Golf Club for a Division One fixture in the CAGU - Cambridgeshire Area Golf Union Scratch Foursomes League.

Foursomes is one of the most demanding formats in amateur golf. Sharing a single ball with your partner means every decision, every swing, and every putt is a joint effort. It takes communication, composure, and a lot of mutual trust.

The boys are out there right now doing Girton proud. We will bring you the result as soon as it is confirmed. Come on, Royal Girton Scratch Team

What a night at Girton Golf Club. The Scratch Team came away with a brilliant 4-2 win over St Neots Golf Club in Division 1 of the CAGU Scratch Foursomes, and it was a performance to be proud of from top to bottom.
