1 Oct 2021 – Donnington Valley

Team Competition – Captain vs Vice Captain. Match play over all 18 holes. Full Handicap difference. Count the number of holes you win.

Andy’s found a place for breakfast. The Toby Carvery, Newbury, RG14 2AJ. All you can eat breakfast for just £4.99.

BTW: From their website… Breakfast just isn’t the same without your favourite drink by your side, but drinks aren’t included in this tasty breakfast deal and do come at an additional cost.

I’ve booked for 16. Suggested arrival time is 9… allowing an hour for b/fast then a 2 mile transfer to Donnington Valley GC in plenty of time for first tee at 11:22.

Journey time from Rowlands Castle to Newbury approximately 1hr 15 mins.
