Dartmouth Golf Club

junior section

As spring arrives and the wet winter fades, the Dartmouth junior golfers have been out on the course to compete for the first junior trophy of the year, the Easter Trophy.

Played on Thursday, April 7, on a dry but very windy day, seven juniors fought hard in the tough conditions and the young Archie Smither came out the winner with a great 36 points, in second place was Joe Turner with 34 points and in third was Matt Dunning with 30 points.

Following the round, the sponsor Lewis Eas­ter presented the trophy to Archie Smither and was thanked for his continued support of the junior section.

Earlier in the Easter holidays, four club juniors made the trip to Tavistock Golf Club to take part in the first Devon meeting of the year.

There were 18 holes of medal play, played on a lovely, sunny day on March 30, which saw all four juniors return with great scores – Joe Turn­er (7) net 70, Jack Dur­rant (26) net 71, Joe Nich­olls (11) net 72 and Matt Dunning (23) net 74.
