How
it all started

Click for larger image |
The
inaugural "meeting" of the Society took place in the small village
of Sandsend, near Whitby, Yorkshire in June 1980. Having been allowed
out for one of their few games of golf the boys returned to find that
Janet and Di had purchased a "trophy" (coffee mug) for the winner
. It was duly presented to Peter. Had Steuart known that a trophy
was at stake he would have tried much harder. Little did they know
that their match marked the founding of one of the most respected
golfing societies in the country or that so much damage would be done
to their livers over the coming years. |
