OLD FETTESIAN NEWSLETTER NO. 66, JULY 2021
OLD FETTESIAN GOLFING SOCIETY
With the Covid-19 restrictions, most of the 2020 fixtures were cancelled, and the early season fixtures for 2021 rearranged. However, we completed our fixture against Marlborough at Sunningdale and the match against the School in May – losing to Marlborough and completing a halved match against the school. We also enjoyed taking part in the 150th Anniversary Global Golf Competition. The Cyril Gray took place at Worplesdon in June where the Fettes team performed well, reaching the quarter-finals. They were narrowly defeated by Canford 2-1. In the Senior Cyril Gray, Fettes finished a creditable 3rd, four points behind the winners. Later in the year, the Halford Hewitt has moved to September 2021 and the Scottish Wayfarers to October 2021.

There are five scratch tournaments and six handicap matches arranged throughout the year, mainly in Scotland and in London, which OFGS members can participate in, and, with OFs living around the world, it will always be possible to put you in contact with local golfers.
