Thursday 27th June, marked a significant event for us with the inaugural Gallagher UK Golf Championship Day, successfully raising funds for YMCA Leicestershire. The day featured golf teams, raffles, and a Charity Auction, which all contributed to the YMCA cause.
The first ‘Overall Winners’ of the Gallagher UK Golf Championship were the team from Pride Consulting IMS , led by director Ryan Lunham, alongside teammates Matthew Powell , Michael Slattery, and Simon Knowles. Congratulations to the Pride Consulting team for their remarkable victory!
Our โNearest the Pinโ Winners, sponsored by Parallel Office and Document Solutions Ltd, Melita POS Ltd, Rock Kitchen Harris, and QFS Manufacturing Limited , were Ronan Homer and Mike Slattery, who each received a certificate and a โ๐๐จ๐ฅ๐๐๐ง ๐๐๐ฅ๐ฅ.โ Notably, Sam Armstrong won two โNearest the Pinโ awards, earning two certificates and two โ๐๐จ๐ฅ๐๐๐ง ๐๐๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฌ.โ (Please make up you own joke hereโฆ)
The โ๐๐จ๐ง๐ ๐๐ฌ๐ญ ๐๐ซ๐ข๐ฏ๐โ sponsored by Ecclesiastical Insurance UK , was claimed by Luke Watson from RW WINDOWS LTD with an impressive monster of a drive that stood unchallenged. Luke, it’s your title to defend next year!
The โ๐๐๐ง ๐จ๐ ๐ญ๐ก๐ ๐๐๐ญ๐๐ก,โ awarded by PGA โAAโ Professional and Level III Coach Tony Westwood for outstanding putting prowess, went to Mick Reeves, a guest of Red Carpets Leicester.
Lastly, the โ๐๐จ๐จ๐๐๐ง ๐๐ฉ๐จ๐จ๐งโ was humorously awarded to event founder and supporter Andrew Franks and his team, including YMCA Leicestershire Trustee David Glover, who opted to forgo scoring for the dayโฆ (that was the excuse given after 18 holes anyway!)
The Gallagher UK Golf Championship Day was filled with great humour, and camaraderie and enjoyed a day full of good golf, bad golf, awful shots, over trees, under trees and wombling free (probably) and creating memorable moments.
Paul Brown, CEO of YMCA Leicestershire said, โThe commitment of people to return next year speaks volumes about the eventโs success and its support for one of Leicestershireโs oldest charities, the YMCA. So thank you to everyone for making this event a triumph for YMCA Leicestershire! We look forward to working with Gallagher UK to making an even bigger and better event next year!โ
