the results were:-

OAKS WINNERS 2016

Congratulations to our winners and to our runners up, Billy Campbell, Arthur Reid and Brian Welsh. I did not include their playing partner John “FFS” Philibin as every time I saw him he was playing like a cow.

It was great to feel that old Cambuslang atmosphere out there on the course and in the clubhouse.

Long may it continue.

Course Closed

From 2nd April onwards the course will remain closed till the Head Greenkeeper and Greens Convenor decide to re-open. We are apparently a club full of green keepers with the decision to close the course being disputed by some members. Can I please add my backing to the Head Greenkeeper and Greens Convenor when I tell you the course looks great but is currently “Floating” on top of a water table that has seen records amount of rainfall this year. Nobody wants to close the course because we lose revenue but I would rather miss cutting up the course in the rain in order to have a better course when the sun eventually decides to shine for more than an hour or two.
