The Forsythe Memorial Trophy

Over the years many people have had a passion for our golf club, none more so than Hugh and Chrissie Forsythe. Chrissie was secretary for many years and on her death in the mid 90’s she left a bequest of over £20K to the club. There were quite a few suggestions at the time of what to do with the money, including a sprinkler system, a lounge extension, however the sum was used over the years to support the cashflow of the club through lean times. Today we celebrate Hugh and Chrissie with the Forsythe Memorial Trophy being played for.

Only £50 for 4 months Golf GUARANTEED
November 2012 to February 2013 inclusive.
For each day the course is closed (Only during snow cover) the period will be extended by a day.
NO mats just lift and place, main greens (when no white frost).

Visitor numbers at Falkland were up this year in the wettest summer on record WHY? because the ground the course is built on drains so well, we were open when many around us were closed. About half of previous years winter ticket holders end up joining for the whole year and get a £25 refund, as they enjoyed the course so much.
