Hi everyone
Six months now into my Captaincy and a very enjoyable six months.
Spring Cup
This was the first major of the year.
The two day event recorded great scores
Andy Richardson win the men’s with 68 points
Maz McGill winning the ladies with 74 points
SdM gained a creditable halved match away at Castro Marim recently.
On a very hilly and narrow course, with a strong wind, conditions were difficult for the visiting team, many playing the course for the first time.
A half was therefore a very positive result for us.
The scores:
| First | Gwynne Jones | Peter Chapman | 46 Points c/b |
| Second | Tony Roxburgh | Roger Yates | 46 Points |
| Third | Arthur Greenwood | Judi Murphy | 45 Points c/b |
| Fourth | Warren Tennant | Pippa Tennant | 45 Points |
| Guest Prize | Dave Shelton | Sue Goodwin | 39 Points |
| Ladies | Nearest the Pin | Hole 16 | Hilke Glenke |
| Men | Nearest the Pin | Hole 16 | Bob Cutt |
| Ladies | Nearest the Pin in 2 | Hole 9 | Barbara Gretton |
| Men | Nearest the Pin in 2 | Hole 11 | Gwynne Jones |
A stunning day and a brilliant turnout of nearly one hundred players made this a wonderful day for our Captain Ray Groves. All the winners and other prizes were presented on Sunday at the Tivoli Hotel in Carvoeiro.
Many of Ray's family were present to make this so memorable.

Our first Silves Charity Day, it clearly was not about winners but about trying to help a young lady in need of urgent medical treatment. However it was a fantastic day when the two Silves based clubs came together in aid of Monica, the daughter of Fatima our bar manager. Apart from the funds raised a great fun day was had by all with good food supplied by Osvaldo and his team. Lively music from J.J Johns and not least an entertaining Auction performed by Simon Arnes who managed to squeeze every last cent out of the bidders. Rob Cheney also helped boost the fund with his beat the Pro event on the 16th Hole as did Patrick Ferreira on the 4th hole, both did a great job.
On another fine day SdM recorded their second home win in two matches against a strong Laranjal team.
Running out 4-1 winners to go along with our 5-0 result in our first home match shows the advantage of playing at home.
Good wins for Gary & Gill Edwards and Steve Edwards & Judi Murphy, whilst Bill Goodwin birdied 18 to give him and partner Arthur Greenwood a fine victory.
