The Notts Amateur Professional Golf Alliance
The Notts Amateur Professional Golf Alliance came to a close last week with Newark cementing an impressive third place in the final Club Order of Merit, after finishing sixth last year. In our first year back after an absence of more than ten years this is a great achievement for all the players who represented us.
PGA Professional also secured 3rd in the Pro’s Order of Merit.
An outstanding season for this year’s Captain, Howard Jones, who came joint 2nd in the Seniors.
Wishing six of our players all the best as they qualified to play in the Harry Brown final against the other top eight teams in the alliance at Rufford Park.
