Cornwall challenge for generous golfers

GOLFERS took to the greens of a stunning course near Bodmin to support the children’s charity of rugby at the Wooden Spoon Cornwall Golf Day.

Greeted by glorious weather, teams of four fuelled up with coffee and bacon rolls before tackling the 18 holes at Lanhydrock Hotel and Golf Club.

As well as attracting several of the region’s steadfast supporters, the annual event featured debuts from new teams and Wooden Spoon Cornwall was delighted to enrol a number of new members – including ex-Bath and Gloucester scrum half Ian Sanders.

The golf day offered prizes to the top three teams and also recognised the best score recorded by a rugby club, with Newton Abbot RFC crossing the border from neighbouring Devon to secure the honours.

Wooden Spoon Cornwall thanks everyone involved in making the day a huge success, including the golfers, sponsors Barclays Bank and Mark Jago, The Co-Operative, Mark Richards, Lanhydrock and Graham Bond.
