May 2025 update

May is normally quite a busy month in the society calendar but this year there is only one event to report on, namely the match (alongside the schoolmasters) against the school. Played in a four ball, better ball format, the match was played in excellent conditions at Croham Hurst, on an evening which only got at all cold after the sun went down.

This match is often referred to as the society’s annual golf lesson, as we watch the boys hit the ball miles, and sometimes also straight. It proved the case on this occasion, as the boys scored a reasonably comfortable victory, by three matches to one, with one halved. New Captain Mark Chatham was the only victorious OW (pictured on the first tee). Many thanks to the masters and the school for providing such pleasant company, in addition to some welcome refreshment after the golf.
