In line with the CLCGA decision to cancel all our fixtures for 2020 we have also decided to cancel the SWFoursomes at Perranporth in October. I had received very few entries to date so the refunds will be made asap. Hopefully normal services will resumed in 2021....

It is with heavy hearts that your committee have decided to cancel all remaining CLCGA events this year. This includes The Gammon Trophy, all League Matches, Vice Presidents Cup, Flag Day, the Bronze and Silver Autumn Meetings, the Jubilee and the League Finals. There are so many factors to take into account in making this decision. Clubhouses are reopening but have significantly reduced capacity, so meals and presentations are not feasible for the time being. Changing room and toilet facilities would be difficult to manage for potentially large numbers of visiting players. Restrictions on sharing cars means travelling to events together would not be allowed. From the point of view of the Golf Clubs...

Following the announcement by England Golf that they have extended their initial blackout of events until 27th July, we have regretfully had to cancel both the Baron Rose Bowl due to be played at St Enodoc on 10th June and the Inter Club Handicap Shield due to be played at Launceston on 17th June.

Once again the decision has not been taken lightly but in view of the current crisis over Coronavirus facing us all, and the latest government advice on avoiding social contact and unnecessary travelling we felt that cancellation was our only course of action. We apologise for any disappointment this may cause. Refunds will be processed as soon as possible. In addition to this we are taking the decision to suspend league matches at the present time with...

The final of the Vice Presidents Cup was played at Perranporth Golf Club on Wednesday 13th November. Due to the weather conditions the venue had to be changed at short notice, so thanks to Perranporth for allowing us the tee time. The final was between Cara Rowe from Killiow and Kath Biddle from St Enodoc. The was only one shot difference in the handicaps and the match was just as close. There was never more than one hole in it until Cara won the 16th to go 2up. A half on 17 gave Cara the match 2&1. The Trophy was...
