Seniors Summer League 2018 - Updated to week 18 - 13th August
A little bit of rain and low lying mist this week restricted numbers playing to fourteen. Scores were down too as a few clubheads took bits of soil before the ball in a way that they weren't doing in the long hot summer. Ian Lister added to the list of different winners this season with 36 stableford points scored whilst playing a Senior Matchplay tie against Alec Lauder. John Lunn returned a 35 to take second place with Pat Jubb having the best inward half of three Seniors on 33.
Ray Johnson was one of the golfers on 33 so he extended his lead at the top of the table. He is now on 76.0 league points, 8.5 ahead of Duncan Shiell who didn't do any better than his existing tenth best performance to date. Duncan remains on 67.5. The only change in positions at the top of the League came in third and fourth place where Pat Jubb and Eddie Berridge switched positions. Pat is third on 63.5 with Eddie fourth on 63.0
Next week, Monday 20th August is a standard League event. Seniors are reminded that the 13 hole Magson Salver takes place on Wednesday 22nd August at 1pm. Please enter on the sheet in the Changing Room. We also need to fix a date for the R&R Trophy presented last year by Ray Johnson and Ron Robertson. It is proving difficult to find a day suitable for both Gents and Ladies so we may have to play for this trophy on a Monday. Members are also reminded that both the September and October Seniors Medals will be played in September - 3rd and 17th. This is to ensure that all medals are completed before Paul hollow tines the greens, which he proposes to do on Monday 24th September. Hollow tining also impacts on the match against Rothbury which has now been moved to Monday 10th September.
Full results of week 18 are shown below,the full table and a history of 2018 Summer League Handicap changes year to date.

The figure in brackets after a golfer’s name indicates the handicap used to generate the Stableford score in the most recent week.
Results are sorted by Total, (highest to lowest), then by number of scores counting to the total (Lowest to highest), then by Mondays played (lowest to highest) and finally by Christian Name if still a tie.
The Summer League runs on Monday mornings, 10am, when the Yellow Tee markers are in place. For 20178this means 9th April to approximately the end of October. When Seniors Medals are played, the strokes are converted to Stableford scores using the current League handicap for the individual. On other Mondays when neither a Stableford or a Medal is played then the League will not be updated. Scores in the Texas Scramble planned for May for example will not count towards the League.
On week 1, League handicaps equal National Handicaps. For individual Stableford scores in excess of 36 any week [or 2*n when n holes are played], the player’s League handicap is cut by 1 for every 2 points or part thereof over 36, i.e. 37 / 38 incurs a cut of 1, 39 /40 incurs a cut of 2 etc. In addition the week’s winner has his handicap cut by a further 1. League handicaps only stay the same or go down. There is no provision for handicaps to rise. League handicaps are completely independent of National Handicaps which remain unchanged throughout. The aim is to spread the prize money around and provide close competition throughout the Series.
