Of course the most coveted award of the morning was the all-encompassing 'Umbrella Award' for those die hard golfers who braved the elements in September armed only with 4 clubs and an umbrella and fought it out to the bitter end!!!
Come and join us next year to enjoy all the fun and see what it is all about! Any level of golfer is welcome and you do NOT need to be a member of Brooklea to be included! Green Fee players are welcomed.
We start the season on Tuesday May 4th with a breakfast meeting followed by a warm-up game of golf. (and I use the term warm-up loosely - after all were talking May 4th here)
