The Past Captain's Day was held recently with seven past captains joined by the current captain. The day's competition was an individual stableford with the Trophy being presented at a dinner held the same evening at Hexagone in Seismarias.

I don't know what the collective noun for a group of past captains is, but judging by the photo it could well be "A persil"!

These were the words from 2nd Commander Gabriel Travassos pictured here with Club Captain Euan Pyper. SdM managed to raise 650 euros for this very worthwhile cause.

A stunning win for SdM vs Boavista in our first appearance in the final of the Interclub Knockout Trophy. In a very close match we came out winners thanks to some very strong finishes.

Another memorable performance by our interleage team today. Beating Levante 5-0 means we are champions barring a mathmaticle miracle. This completes a perfect 100% home record of played 6 won 6.

Another outstanding result for our SdM interleague team, winning 4-1 away to Vilamoura on the beautiful Pinhal course.

The annual Golf Charity Day took place at Silves Golf Course on Friday, 6^th July with 103 members and their guests taking part from both Serra de Monchique (SdM) and Silves International Golf Clubs (SICG).

All went very well and the Cup was won by a Team from SdM, Mick Caudle, Chris Zisimedes, Stephen Day and Les Jennings with a score of 140 points. They also received a memento trophy, golf shirts and balls donated by Blevins Franks. The format of the competition was teams of 4 with a minimum of 3 drives each and then each played their own ball, with 3 scores to count. There were nearest the pin prizes as well as a car worth 12,000 euros up for grabs for a Hole in One on the 16^th. Sadly, no one achieved this, however the Captain’s Charities did benefit.
