The second Tommy Clucas Charity Golf Day took place at Peel Golf Club on Sunday 23rd August once again with the kind sponsorship of Richard and Alison Jones of Hanover. A total of 18 teams started playing into a stiff Easterly breeze but with the course in excellent condition good scoring was likely to be possible. With numerous holes sponsored and plenty of spot prizes up for grabs everyone had plenty of chances to pick up a prize.

Whilst the results were being finalised, all the teams were fed and watered with refreshments made available by Heron & Brearley.

The results saw the first members of the ‘Tommy Club’ inaugurated. To become a member, your team must score a minimum of 120 points to reflect the qualifying criteria for the Tommy Club in the Manx Grand Prix. With 120 points and finishing in third place were the team of Brian Coll, Phil Kniveton, Rob Condra and Ian Nicholson. Second place and also into the Tommy Club with 121 points are Terry Quayle, Mark Chatel, Tony Grant and Chris Kelly. Both of those scores on any other day would have been good enough to win, however with a score of 132 points Chris Looney, Kerron Christian, Andrew Mackie and Daniel Lace claimed first prize. Danny having 42 points and Kerron having 40 will see both of them playing off a lower handicap for the next event!

The day raised in excess of ?2,400 for the Tommy Clucas Community Sports Hall based at Peel Football Club and the Captain of Peel Golf Club, Peter Manzi was delighted to hand over the cheque to Anne Clucas and Neil Cain. In addition to this donation, the teams that contest the ‘Congary Cup’ also donated ?500 to the charity making it an extra special day. Many thanks to our sponsors for their continued support and we look forward to the 2016 event.
