Greetings from Manston Golf Centre
Manston Golf Centre

Welcome to another one of our weekly newsletters. I hope you all were glued to the television to see if Jordan Spieth could hang onto his big lead at Augusta and become one of the youngest people in Masters History to win the green jacket and he did! Not bad at 21years old. In the newsletter this week we have the results of the Masters sweepstake, so if you managed to buy a square be sure to pop in and see if you've won, plus other exciting news I look forward to sharing with you. Enjoy the read.

Easter Camp 2015

Last week saw more than a dozen juniors attend Keely and Benj's Easter Camp. It was held on Wednesday, 8 - Friday, 10 April. We held daily competitions and also a big competition that would run into the Friday with great prizes on offer such as gloves, balls and hats. All the juniors really enjoyed themselves and were extremely well behaved.

From the picture you can see the juniors working on their putting skills by holing putts from the cones and slowly moving the cones out further to make their putts slightly harder and needless to say, they still managed to hole them! Must be the influence of the coaches! Over the three days these cones were used to great affect making pitching and chipping games, accuracy targets and even used to make their own mini golf holes on the putting green.

Thanks to all that came to this and we will be in touch about another one in the near future.

Just a reminder that if you want your child to carry on improving their golfing skills; Keely and Benj run a Saturday roll up session from 10-11am and also Keely runs one on a Monday from 5-6pm. Both are at a cost of just £6 for the hour and all equipment and balls are provided. For more information please don't hesitate to contact a member of staff or click here to get in touch. 

Winter Foresomes Winners 2014/15

The Winter Foresomes is a pair's knockout competition and runs from November to the final at the end of March. This year the final was Gary Davies/Graham Marek vs Michael Whyte/Bernie Curd.

This year's final was very close and was eventually won on the last hole. Graham is currently having a series of lessons with our PGA Professional David Vernon and Gary is currently having lessons with our PGA Assistant Professional Benj Vernon, both have done extremely well and by winning this tournament, and it shows you that lessons can make a difference to your game. I must admit that they did win this at the end of March and every time I came to put it in the newsletter I seemed to forget! Congratulations.

If you are interested in having some lessons with our PGA professional staff, please pay us a visit in the pro shop, or click here to get in touch.

Staff Tournament Update

Max was away playing again this week this time in the Farnham better ball pro am, where there was a pro individual competition as well as a team competition. After setting off to Surrey, a much longer journey than normal meant no time for a warm up, just a few putts and away they went. Starting on the 10th hole Max rolled in a 50 ft putt to start the round with a birdie, he followed it at the par 5 11th with another hitting a wedge to 3 feet and tapping it in. He bogeyed the next but bounced back with a 2 on the par 3 13th. The next 4 holes he missed short putts then two putted the par 5 18th to turn in 34 (-2), as a team his amateur had contributed and the pair turned in 32 (-4).

The 1st hole is a par 5 and Max hit 3wood and a pitching wedge on the 520yard hole for another easy birdie. Another bogey on the par 3 third followed by two more birdies and then another bogey on the par 3 sixth. A strong finish to the round produced 3 birdies to finish to take the round tally to 10 birdies and a score of 66(-6) 1 shot shy of the winning score 65. The team score of 61 (-11) put them in a tie for 1st, after being beaten on count back into second place.

Keely is also away playing this week. She has travelled down to Dinard in France for the first LET Access event of the year. We wish her the best of luck and will be sure to keep you updated on how she gets on. Good Luck!
