GEM Partnership golfers once again travelled to Northumberland for the annual GEM Golf Competition, with MD Lee Rankin leading the pack with a consistent performance across the full 3 days, closely followed by runner up Graeme Clark.

The weekend provided perfect golfing weather with minimal winds which left no excuses for the golfers to fall back on.  First round was played at Percy Wood in Swarland on Friday afternoon, round 2 at Dunstanburgh Castle on Saturday and the final Sunday round played over the fantastic Burgham Park course.

The competition this year was close, with the top 4 golfers all separated by 5 points heading in to the final round at Burgham on Sunday morning. Ultimately the competition was decided with a fantastic final round score of 33 points off ¾ handicaps from Lee who had already had his handicap slashed after a runaway performance on Friday afternoon. Congratulations Lee, the coveted GEM Champion Golfer of the Year trophy will be in his possession for a 2^nd time...

until next year of course...
