Tuesday night running

By Webmaster , 31 May, 2014

Those new to the club may not be aware that there is a tradition for club members (and friends) to run in the New Forest on Tuesday evenings during the summer. The runs usually (when we don't get lost) last about an hour covering 7-8 miles off-road. The venue changes each month and for June will be Beaulieu Road Station followed by a drink or two at the Drift Inn. For more info contact david [at] currie.name (David Currie).

Or you can use your own Clubs if you have them. A 9 Iron or pitching wedge and a Putter plus a ball or 2 and Tee pegs.

 

RULES for the SOC Challenge:

1) You can send in your Score any time from now till the end of August.

2) You can Play and send in as many Scores as you like.

3) Your Score must be verified by a Witness (Witness does not need to be a SOC Member).

4) All shots to be counted even air shots (i.e. when you try to hit the ball but miss).

 

We would like to generate a Social side to the activity and encourage people to arrange to play

in groups. Form your own party and let Club members know you plan to play at a certain time.

I plan to play this coming Sunday 25th May at 14:00 ( weather permitting).
