Congratulations to our Vice Captain, Sarah, who was the winner of the Foundation Brooch with 39 points. Once we can present it, I fully expect to see Sarah wearing the brooch regularly. Well done to Lisa and Alison who were 2nd and 3rd respectively. Good luck to the 5 a side team this Saturday who take on Muswell Hill`s 1st team. Sadly, we will be ...

Not quite shorts and tee shirt weather this week, but at least it's dry. Congratulations to Umar last week, who won the "back to golf" competition with 37 points, closely followed by Sharon on 35. Please remember that if you "blob" a hole to enter it as NR on your card, not NS. It is also important that we each remember to check our handicap index ...

Welcome back to the golf course everyone. What perfect weather for us to enjoy our first competition round. I hope you all enjoyed being out there as much as I did and are ready to brush off the cobwebs (and rust) for Friday`s Captain v Vice Captain. All the details are under "upcoming Competitions" and you should also have received an email from L...

A few brief reminders before we get back out on the golf course. Please make sure you are familiar with the back to golf guidelines issued by the club. We will be playing in 3`s on Wednesdays so remember to fill in the first available time on the timesheet. When we are back in 2`s I will notify everyone. "Preferred lies will remain in place until t...

Hi everyone, With the return to golf only a couple of weeks away please be aware that certain events may be subject to change. Any changes will be notified on the blog and via WhatsApp, but if you are not on the WhatsApp group please let me know and I will contact you directly. Lisa has put all the knockout competitions on the IG system, so please ...

I`m sure we are all eagerly awaiting our release back to the golf course. On Monday 29th March we are due to play our friendly Greensomes match between the Women's Captain ( hooray) and the Women's Vice Captain (boo). How lovely to kick off our return to golf with a fun competition. Let`s hope we can remember which end of the stick thing we need to...

Sadly, this week we have had to say goodbye to Maureen, who had bravely fought cancer for 26 years. I know so many of us will already have expressed our condolences and sadness of her passing to Sue, David and Liz, but on behalf of the women's section I'd like to say how much she will be missed by us all. Maureen never seemed to be overwhelmed by t...

Hello everyone, Lisa has set up the knockout competitions and the entry is open. You can find the competitions on the IG home page under, Upcoming Competitions. The closing date for entry is March 21st and the competitions will start from April 1st 🤞 With every week that passes I hope we get closer to getting back out on the golf course. When we ar...

Hi everyone, Please can I remind those women who have trolley in the shed to take it home for a short while whilst the shed is being refitted. If you are thinking of entering an individual Middlesex competition this year please check on their website for closing date for entry. We are keeping a close eye on our diary and realise that some competiti...

Hi Everyone, With no golf to play, we've had to resort to tobogganing and snow ball fights. At least it was a distraction from Covid. I`m also happy to say that most of our senior women members have had their first vaccine and some have even had both doses. January and February are never the best months to be on the golf course anyway, ( which is w...

I hope everyone had an enjoyable Christmas despite the new restrictions on us all. I'm very happy to say that Pat Turner made it home for Christmas and we hope she continues to make good progress. I found out today that Mia has had a spell in hospital but is also back home now where Ros keeps in touch with her. We send both women our love and good ...

As the countdown to Christmas and the vaccine approaches, it's been a relatively quiet time. Congratulations to Kathy Kerr and Angela Balnave who won the Greensomes competition with 31 points and to Umar, Billie and Louise who won the abridged Texas Scramble. Don't forget we have a competition on the 23rd and 30th along with the Cold Turkey Trot on...

Despite the heavy rain on Tuesday night, we did manage to play our Greensomes competition, although ground conditions were very testing. Unfortunately, there were problems with IG and therefore I cannot let you know the winning pair at present. Next week is the Texas Scramble and please don your festive gear. Please enter on the IG and Li...

I`m sure we were all so happy to be back on the golf course on Wednesday, meeting up with friends to try and reacquaint ourselves with this strange game. Luckily for us the weather wasn't too unkind (unlike Thursday) and we were all able to at least enjoy a nice walk. As you know there were a few issues with IG and scoring, mostly due to peopl...

Yippee, Brilliant, Fantastic, Wow I`m sure you all think I'm talking about the return to play, which of course is reason enough to be happy. But I`m actually referring to the staggering amount of money BHP managed to raise for Noah's Ark Hospice over their Moments that matter campaign. I`m delighted to say that thanks to your generosity we raised o...

My chosen charity, Noah's Ark Children's Hospice are running a Moments that Matter campaign and we at Bush Hill Park Golf Club are team leaders in supporting this. For a limited period of time every donation will be doubled. Please take 90 seconds to watch this inspiring film and then please give what you can. Thank you very much to everyone that h...

Week 2 of lockdown has typically seen some dry weather where I'm sure many of us would have loved to be playing. Tracey and I took the opportunity to tend to some of the flower beds and it was lovely to see members availing themselves of the course for a walk. It was particularly great to see Jon Copley out and about. We will al...

 I'd like to start by congratulating Sarah and her Pearson Team, who posted their first win of the competition against Sudbury last Friday. Conditions were far from easy, but the team managed to secure a 3/2 win with Alison narrowly loosing her match on the 18th. A great effort Unfortunately, with lockdown some matches will need to be rearrang...

Unfortunately, the only winner in the Women's competition this week was the weather, with torrential rain keeping us all tucked up at home. Last week at my Drive In we raised £192 and Ros was the winner of the nearest guess, receiving £50 from the amount raised. The rest will go to my charity. Please can I nudge you all into entering the 2`s for th...

I didn't think I`d be back as Women's Captain quite so soon, if ever again. However, "I`m just a girl who can't say no" and who is also very happy to do anything I can to help our club. I'd like to thank Sue and her committee for steering us through these highly unusual times, which are obviously here to challenge us all for a bit longer. This year...
