Santana 11th December 2025
Last weeks game was played at our home course Santana and we were kindly sponsored by Don Crowley.
The course as usual lately played long and tough especially with the greens being a bit slow after the previous days rain but alas this did not stop some great scores being posted with the top 3 all scoring more than 36pts.

Next week we play our final game of the year at El Higueral with the first tee time at 10.00.
Going forward into the new year, January and the start of February is our busy time of the year and for most games in this period we are already full with reserves or have an odd place available some weeks. We will do our best to accommodate everyone depending if extra times are available at the courses but as courses are busy sometimes this is not possible.
Parador 4th December 2025
Thursdays game was played at Parador and as normal played its usual tough self especially with greens that were running very quick. We were kindly sponsored by Ray Critcher.
When the cards had been checked and all the usual inquests into the days golf had finished , well nearly, the winners were announced inside the Red Dragon for a change as it was a bit chilly outside for some of the players.
