Event Report – Schools Golf Tournament at Royal Ashdown Forest Golf Club
Last Thursday, we returned to the historic Royal Ashdown Golf Club, a venue steeped in tradition since its founding in 1888. The students had the privilege of competing on the revered Old Course, renowned for its natural beauty and unique challenges.
The day began with wet and misty weather, creating a testing start for the early tee times. However, as the morning progressed, the rain eased and gave way to beautiful autumnal sunshine, perfectly showcasing the course’s stunning surroundings.
Royal Ashdown is known for its blind shots, natural heather, and demanding layout, offering a true test of course management and composure. The students embraced the challenge with their usual competitive spirit.
Results:
• 🥇 Team Event Winners: Bede’s A Team
• 🥇 Individual Stableford Winner: Ben Everett
• 🥇 Scratch Winner: Coby Hall, winning on countback
We are delighted to have returned to Royal Ashdown this year and would like to thank the club for the warm hospitality. The venue offers a memorable experience for our students, and we look forward to returning again next year.
