Meals Meals THE HAZARDS GOLFING SOCIETY was formed in March, 1936, by eleven enthusiasts headed by the late Austin Carris. The inaugural meeting was held at 7. Accoi Moor Park in April of that year to which some forty golfers were invited whom the A list sponsors thought might fit happily into the Society. The first President was Austin Carris and Alfred Hawes, the first Captain. Austin also undertook the duties of Honorary Secretary. The guiding principles of the Society were then, as they are now: To arrange golf meetings with the primary object of drawing together amateur golfers in the hope that strong bonds of friendship would be formed. To promote the best interest of golf and to preserve the dignity and prestige of the game and of the Society. Membership is restricted to 125 Playing Members and is by invitation only. The privilege to extend such an invitation is vested in the Committee and is limited to those who have been suggested by not less than two Members of the Society. Furthermore, anyone so suggested should have attended one of the Society's meetings so that members of the Committee could have had an opportunity of making his acquaintance. The election of a Member is for one year only and the Committee may invite a Member to continue his membership for a further year. In order that as many golf clubs as possible may be represented membership from any one club is normally limited to six. Members are expected to support the social events, i.e. the Annual Dinner and the A.G.M. Luncheon; also a reasonable number of golfing fixtures. Failure to do so is taken into account by the Committee when issuing invitations for a further year's membership. Golf Meetings are held on weekdays at courses in the South-East and there is an Annual week-end meeting at a coastal resort. Playing for high stakes is frowned upon and Hazards, when sending acceptance cards for meetings (other than Guest Meetings), should not fix partnerships but should leave this to the Hon. Secretary who will endeavour to arrange games for Members with as great a variety of partners as possible. Matches are played during the year, notably against the Seniors and Bar Golfing Societies. 1979. M'^^ i —j— ' - Our support: of Junior Golf continues m\ MOOR PARK GOLF CLUB Rickmansworth, Herts.

For me, a memorable year and one I am unlikely to forget and I do thank you all for the great support that you have given me. There are several matters upon which I must comment but first I must bring you up to date with results:- GUEST MEETING - SUNNINGDALE. THURSDAY, UTH OCTOBER Thirty-nine members and nineteen guests attended and the Club looked after us in true Sunningdale tradition. The course absorbed heavy overnight rain and was in remarkably good condition and we had only a passing shower in the course of the day. The winners were:- MORNING SINGLES. Div.I. Roger Cheyney 38 points Div.II. Arnold Thomas 37 points Runners-up Div.I John Nicholson, Michael Humfrey and Dick Walker (G) 35 points Div.II Bob Scruby 3K points Best Guest: R H A Clark 36 points AFTERNOON Donald Courtney & Roy Siemssen 3k points FOURSOMES E/U Dennis Pink and his guest 0 Webster-Smith) Alan Laird " " " W Perrott ) Dick Davie " " " J Anderson ) 33 points PISKSY TROPHY. Another splendid weekend with the Newquay Club living up to all we have come to exnect. I did wonder just what we had let ourselves in for as we drove across Bodmin Moor on the Friday evening in a gale and pouring rain. However, Saturday morning dawned fine and dry but, alas, we were not destined to win this year we lost by two matches to one to ths Mercian Monks in the first round (the deciding match being lost on the Home Hole) and so "won" a place in the consolation event, the Cornish Pasty. Here we did ourselves no harm at all, winning by three matches to nil against the Wessex Wac-Wacs, and in the semi-final on the Sunday morning (another dry day) we won by two matches to one against The Old Blundellians. Thus we were in the final but the occasion proved too much for us and we lost to the Arny Golf Association by 2\J\. A disappointing end but a splendid effort nevertheless I To those that accompanied me on the long trip to Cornwall, my thanks.

    History of Royal Cromer Golf Club established 1888 Information obtained from minute books, letters, members records, journals and periodicals. Royal Cromer Golf Club History Established 1888 Royal Cromer Golf Club owes its existence to the enthusiasm and love of the game of a Mr. Henry Broadhurst M.P., a Scot who lived at 19, Buckingham Street, The Strand, London. In the 1880's, whilst holidaying in Cromer, he recognised the potential of land to the seaward of the Lighthouse as a possible site for a Links Course. The popularity of North Norfolk at this time had been noted in the London City Press in a report dated 5th September 1886: "The public are greatly indebted to railway enterprise for the opening up of the East Coast. More bracing air and delightful sands are not to be found in any part of England. The only drawback is that the country is rather flat. This remark, however, does not apply to Cromer, which bids fair to become the most popular watering place, it being entirely free from objectionable features". The site of the proposed golf course was owned by the then Lord Suffield KCB, who kindly consented to the request of Broadhurst and some twenty other enthusiasts to rent the land. The Club was instituted in the Autumn of 1887 with Lord Suffield as President. Doubtless it was his friendship and influence with the Prince of Wales which precipitated the Prince's gracious patronage of the infant club on 25th December 1887. Thus Cromer had a Royal Golf Club even before its official opening the following January.
