Brymor’s Golf Day 2011
On Thursday 15th September a selection of over 25 construction professionals enjoyed a fun-packed day of golf. This annual event once again took place at the Marriott Meon Valley Hotel and Country Club, Southampton and saw representatives from Studio Four Architects, SEC, Henderson Green, Gleeds and Allen Holmes Associates to name but a few.
The competition was carried out over a 9-hole Stableford competition in the morning, followed by an 18-hole Texas Scramble in the afternoon. In addition, the competitors were split into teams of Europe and USA, taking part in a Ryder Cup-style competition which became very competitive!
 The overall winner for the Stableford Competition was our very own Gary Edmonds (Project Manager - pictured right), who scored 20 points. However Nigel Smith (Smith Foster) was a very close runner-up who also scored 20 points and only lost on count back.
After lunch was where not only our Brymor hosts showed their competitive streak, but also our clients, as all teams were playing to win in the Texas Scramble.
Each team kept their cards very close to their chests throughout the 18 holes of golf, and after sweat and tears from all involved the champions were David Perry’s team consisting of; David Perry (Brymor) David Greetham (Gleeds) and Nigel Smith (Smith Foster) who sailed home to victory with a score of 59.4 points.
However all the emphasis was on whether Europe or USA had won the overall Ryder Cup competition. It was very close right up to the last second, but the overall winners were the USA, 8 points to 7!
Brymor have been holding this particular event for numerous years and it was still as popular as ever. Stephen Morton CEO said, “We are extremely pleased that once again so many of our most valued and important clients were able to join us, some of whom have been attending for over five years. It is always good fun and has an extremely relaxed atmosphere, and although the golf is sometimes not ‘up to par’ the company is always fantastic. I hope we can continue the working relationships which have been created over the years and we thank all our customers for their continued support in these difficult times”. |
