CAPTAIN'S DRIVE-IN

Over 70 members enjoyed an excellent day on Saturday as we witnessed the usual nervous Captain's Drive-In, but we are pleased to announce both Captain's performed to the highest level. Congratulations must go to the Vice Captain's Team in defeating the Captain's Team by the narrowest of margins. Above is the Gents and Lady Captain's action shot!
Below is Joan & Iain McCouig who have sold the Captain's Flags at the Drive-In for a number of years and have finally said that this is their last year. The Club wishes to thank them for their help on this day over the years.
