    Marlborough sadly beaten by Hurst and Storm Amy!

    Scores: 

    1. Jamie Amor & Hamish Greenwood Won 5 and 3

    2. ⁠Worcester Bawden & Oscar Powell Lost 4 and 3

    3. Oscar Oliver and Albie Payne Lost on 19

    Game 1, got up early and kept the pressure on with 3 birdies.

    Game 2, lost a few early holes including the 1st to a 40ft off the green putt. Found themselves in a hole at 6 down after 9, then showed some fight to get back to 4 down but damage was done early on.

    Game 3, good battle against two +2 golfers. We were up after 6, had a tough middle stretch to find ourselves 3 down after 12; fought hard into the wind but were still 2 down walking onto the 15th. Oscar had to hole a 12ft putt to half in 3 after the oppo boxed a 20ft putt for par. Our boys won the 16th and 17th with solid pars. All square down 18, with two great approaches, birdie putts missed by both and it was onto extra holes. Oscar had the honour, hit a great drive but, downwind, ran out of fairway and ran into the only deep bit of rough on the 1st hole - a grassy bunker. Hurstpierpoint stepped up from the fairway and knocked it to 5ft, then holed the putt to make birdie and advance.

    A creditable effort in the Stableford Plate saw us come 7th.

    More work to be done!

    Members will be saddened to hear that John Uzielli died on Friday 27th June 2025

    John represented all that is best in the Old Marlburian Golfing Society. He was Captain in 1973/74 and President between 2010-13. He first represented Marlborough in the Halford Hewitt in 1958 and continued to play in that tournament, with huge success until 1990

    The Marlburian Club has published John's obituary:

    John Uzielli obituary

    To celebrate John's life, a thanksgiving service will be held at the Church of St Michael and All Angels, Sunninghill SL5 7DD on Monday 22 September at 12 noon. And afterwards at The Berkshire Golf Club

    On a miserable weather day, and battling those Woking greens(!), Jamie Amor and Hamish Greenwood shot 74 in the morning to lie 5th.  Although four other teams were ahead at the halfway point, a valiant 76 in the afternoon eventually gained them second spot.  Congratulations to them both.

    The Halford Hewitt 2025 continued today with Marlborough teeing off against Felsted at 10:40 at Royal Cinques Ports. The match came down to the wire, with Felsted winning the decider at the 21st, having reached the green in two, 15ft from the pin. It was too good for Marlborough pair who had fought back valiantly to be 1 up on the 18th tee, but found thick rough to the left of the 18th green and were unable to close the match out

    Subsidies have been in place for many years and will continue for the foreseeable future. With effect from 1-Apr-2025, subsidies towards the cost of a day's golf, including the green fee and the cost of lunch are as follows:

    • Players 25 years and under will receive a subsidy of up to £75 towards the daily cost for both matches and meetings
    • Players 26 to 35 years will receive a subsidy of up to £40 towards the daily cost for both matches and meetings

    In OMGS meetings only (ie rather than matches), players of 36 years and over will receive a subsidy of £30 towards the daily cost.

    Subsidies are designed to encourage youngsters to play in matches and everybody to attend meetings. The scheme will be reviewed annually

    Match managers should include the estimated cost of the day on the website so that members, when they register, can see how much they will have to pay.

    Any queries should be referred to the Honorary Secretary.

    Please note that subsidies will only be paid to those who have a DD mandate in place for payment of the annual subscription. This includes College Leavers paying £2 per year
