OLD CRANLEIGHAN GOLFING SOCIETY
We had a very successful 2023 Mellin. In the Peter Burles (over 65s) we lost in the first round to Forest but won the first two rounds of the plate against Lancing and Loretto. In the final we played Bedford and after drawing 1-1 we lost in extra holes. Well done Martin Riddiford, John Schofield, […]
We got off to a good start beating Aldenham 3-0. In the afternoon we played the defending champs, Forest, and whilst we played pretty well they played some brilliant golf. They had three of their current Hewitt team and were just too good for us on the day. For me it was great to play […]

It was great to be back last week representing the OCGS in the Mellin at West Hill. The Mellin started many years ago when old boys who were coming to the end of their Hewitt careers or had finished decided they wanted to carry on playing competitive old boys golf. The first 16 sides went […]

THE BUNNY MILLARD A fantastic win this year for Cranleigh with Richard Sykes and Ian Borrow taking the trophy from Mill Hill winning by 1up! They were also best qualifiers with 26 points which is no mean achievement off scratch and having not scored at the first and second holes. I caddied for Richard in […]
THE MELLIN SALVER Disappointingly we went down 2/1 in the first round against Aldenham. This was despite an excellent win by our first pair of John Schofield and Richard Williams who now become the most successful Cranleigh partnership in the tournament since records began. Regrettably our second and third pairs of Martin Riddiford and Jonathan […]
We had a comfortable 2/1 win against Hurstpierpoint in the first round with our first and second pairs chalking up solid victories in their matches. We then faced Felsted in the second round who had surprisingly beaten last year’s winners Oundle in the first round. Our second pair, Martin Riddiford and Jonathan Williams gained their […]
