THE Andy Parker Trophy saw a strong field of competitors at Oake Manor Golf Club.

The competition delivered tightly contested scores and a standout performance from this year’s winner. Paul Coleman (h14) emerged victorious with an outstanding nett score of 64, finishing three strokes clear of his nearest rivals.

David Wheeler (h10) and James Macey (h12) shared second place with excellent rounds of 67, both delivering solid performances that kept them in contention throughout.

A cluster of players followed closely behind, including Dave Hill (3) and Simon Hartstone (18), both carding 70, showing the depth of competition across the field. No fewer than six players tied on 71, Richard Shepherd (15), Richard Barker (4), Graham Salway (9), Michael How (8) and Rob Berry (13), underlining just how competitive the event was this year.

Despite narrowly missing out on top honours, all participants contributed to a great day of golf. A massive thank you to all the greenkeepers for the excellent condition the golf course is in! Congratulations once again to Paul Coleman on a well-deserved win!
