Brian Trickey with 36 points was the winner of the Stableford competition that was played at Taunton and Pickeridge Golf Club last week.

John Snell claimed second place with 34 points, three clear of third placed David Parker who returned with 31. However two players came back to the clubhouse with 30 points, but after count back had been applied it was George Armstrong who just pipped Steve Coomber for fourth place.

Last week’s Philip Cook Winter League 6 saw Andy Jones with 38 points come out on top.

Two players carded 37 points so once again count back came into play after which it was Chris Coxon who was second just ahead of Jonathon West.

Three players scored 36 points but after count back Barry Johnson claimed fourth spot, Trevor Harron was fifth while David Parker was sixth.

T&P will be open on Christmas and Boxing Day but there will be no access to the Clubhouse.

Between December 27 and 30 the course will be open all day, along with the clubhouse, pro shop and kitchen, but check tauntongolf.co.uk for exact timings.

On New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day  the course is open all day but the clubhouse and bar close at 4pm. From 2nd January onwards virtually normal service will resume but the advice as ever is to log onto tauntongolf.co.uk to be certain.
