This year some of our junior members have gone on to  play and perform extremely well in international events. Sophie Phillips won the under 12s girls GM Spanish Open at Los Flamingos  as well as the  under 14   British Junior golf tour event at Forest Pines, and took first place again in the under 16s girls stableford section at the Hacienda del Alamo Ladies Golf Festival in Murcia. In addition George Twyman came third in the boys section at the GM Spanish Open at Los Flamingos, and Jack Hawkins came second in the boys section in the British Junior  event at Forest Pines.
