A truly wonderful day was had by the 78 finalists of the County Medal at Minchinhampton. Over 3500 players entered in their County Medal Qualifier through April, May & June and the winners in both the low & high category sections won their way through to the fabulous Minchinhampton (New) Avening Course for an unforgettable day. The weather was lovely & the course in its usual pristine condition. As well as winning some great prizes on the day the winners in each category go on to represent Gloucestershire at the EGU Gold Medal final on Aug 15/15 at Woodhall Spa's world famous Hotchkin course.

It was a day never to be forgotten for young Sam Morgan of Bristol & Clifton. Although he made the trip, he was quite poorly & did not expect to be able to start, nevertheless he gave it a go & what a round of golf he had. Playing off a handicap of 2 he managed to return a wonderful 2 under par 68-02= 66 to win the low handicap category and the fabulous prize of representing his county at Woodhall Spa, courtesy of the English Golf Union.

2nd in the low handicap category (up to 12 handicap) was Jon Pickett from Woodspring Golf Club (77-09=68). Local man Richard Fillis (Minchinhampton New) won the higher handicap (13-28) trophy & also makes the trip to Woodhall Spa losing out on 1st prize by just one stroke with a fine 90-23=67. In 2nd place in this category was Stuart Kitchen of Cirencester with a terrific score of 85-16=69.

Let's all hope for a Gloucestershire winner at the national finals against all other English Counties in August.

I have attached a picture of Sam Morgan & Richard Fillis, the full result, & the names of all the club EGU gold medal winners throughout the year. Also action pic of Morgan courtesy of Tom Ward

MALCOLM LEWIS IS PARTNERSHIP’S NEW CHAIRMAN

Malcolm Lewis, from Henbury Golf Club, has been appointed chairman of the Gloucestershire County Golf Partnership.

In making this announcement, acting chairman Mark Powell said:

”Malcolm has a fantastic background in golf, including being a past England captain, Walker Cup player, winner of the British Open Silver Medal (for the leading amateur), British Youth’s champion, as well as a 1st team county player for over 27 years.

Malcolm currently works in the corporate sector delivering board and senior management team coaching and development.

I am confident that Malcolm will bring a new dimension to the role of chairman and will ably support Debbie Casling, County Development Officer and the current partnership committee.”

Powell, who has been acting chairman since the death last year of the Partnership’s first chairman, Don Harmer, will act as Deputy Chairman and represent the men’s union on the partnership Committee.

Lewis thought long and hard before accepting the appointment and is now looking forward to this new challenge:

" I am thrilled to be back engaged with golf and especially in a role where I can help to make a difference in Gloucestershire. These days business life dominates my passions and is all linked to helping individuals and organisations to understand their purpose in life and aligning the action. Hopefully by connecting up my past golfing passions with my vocational work I can help to continue to guide the fantastic work of the Gloucestershire Golf Partnership to date. It has been really exciting to observe the sheer hard work and enthusiasm of all involved led by Mark Powell and the County Development Officer, Debbie Casling."
