Drayton Park owner Mike McKenna (left) hands over the Anniversary Trophy to Brian Duckhouse
Drayton Park celebrated their 20th Anniversary with a stableford competition which attracted 100 members.
Brian Duckhouse came out on top and collected his trophy from club owner Mike McKenna.
With a background in construction, McKenna did much of the early work on the course himself when it began in 1988.
Unlike most other golf clubs at the time there was no waiting list and Drayton Park had 400 golfers signed up by the time it officially opened in April 1993.
Membership now stands at almost 600, with a significant proportion turning out to mark the anniversary.
RESULT
Michael F McKenna Anniversary Bowl: 1 B Duckhouse, 2 D Morton, 3 S Coombes. Ladies: 1 P Sibley, 2 D Foster. Juniors: 1 J Evans.
