Details of our Badgers Golf Day at South Essex Golf Club in 2010, won by Derek Slatford

South Essex produced another classic days golf for the last fixture of the 2009 - 2010 season, with blue skies and red foreheads the order of the day.  Our thanks go to sponsors PIP Electrics for sponsoring the prizes and fixing the weather, what a top contractor!!  With 26 Badgers and guests in attendance, the course was in great nick and the quality of golf didn't dissappoint either.  John Pye put in a Captains performance in his last outing as Captain, scooping the team prize with his team of Mark Doughty, Keith Ives and Ian Ferguson.  Winning guest with 38 points was Stuart Wright who, by all accounts played a safe round, taking no risks!
