The first ever Padel KIT!

Worldham Golf Club have recently expanded the sports they have on offer to include padel.  They currently have two courts, set in beautiful country surroundings, just in front of the first tee on the golf course.  As padel has proved so popular in the area, they also have plans to build a third court in the pipeline.

Today eight of us played an American style mixed 8 tournament for the little KIT trophy.  This is the first time that the trophy has been used for a padel and not a tennis competition - and hopefuly it won't be the last time! 

The weather was perfect and the 8 people involved were:

Tess, Kate, Carey & Caryl + Kish, John, David & Ken

After the round robin matches the final ended up being:

 Kish & Cary v David & Kate

The final was played over the usual one set and, after many long rallies and closely fought games, the winners turned out to be:

 David & Kate 

The players - John, Kish, Carey, David, Caryl, Kate, Tess 

(+ Ken behind the camera!)

The 4 finalists - Carey, Kish, Kate & David

..... and finally, congratulations to today's winners:

Kate & David!

Tim's Trophy - June 2024

Golf Trophy to remember Tim Guilding

It had been almost a year since we last played for Tim's Trophy when Geoff, Steve and Ken teed off this morning at Four Marks Golf Club.  We were all much better than we thought we would be - so perhaps practice doesn't always help!

This time it was Ken's turn to just manage to hold on for a win, despite a late surge from Geoff!
