Seniors and Mixed Open Tournaments 2020
Many clubs run Senior open pairs (and some teams of 3 + a club member and Individuals) and other tournaments during the year. A number of Warley Park Seniors have played in some of these around Essex, Kent, Hertfordshire and into Suffolk which are doable in a day. We usually mix up partners and a few go along to each. They are usually good, reasonably relaxed, well run events, that are reasonably priced, sometimes with breakfast included and nearly always lunch, along with prizes. They can provide access to courses which might not come up in other ways. And you get to mix with players from other clubs. To help access some of the known events I am listing those we have done or thought about before (it should have direct click links to the relevant website pages) .
I have included events that clash with Warley Seniors competition dates etc, not to suggest that you do those rather than Warley events, but so that some of us who have normally taken part in those events don’t have to double check individually when they are occurring.
Nearly all such events are listed on the ‘golfempire website' https://www.golfempire.co.uk . Many will have downloadable forms on the individual club’s website as well as through that website.
The list includes Senior events only, but there are numerous mixed events and mens events as well. I’ll update this as we hear about additional Seniors events that are usually added during the year.
As I mentioned a number of us usually do one or two or more of these, but others might be interested.
For instance:
I am happy to co-ordinate responses from anyone who might be interested in linking up with others to take part - just a short reply to say you’re interested and which events/dates you can do.
I’ll then publish that list between us so that you can then link up with others.
Alternatively you can just ask others of course!
It would be good to know who’s going to what though so that we can link up.
Obviously we all have to apply to get places (one usually does it for the pair or team), but if you get in reasonably early there are usually places OK.

For instance:
- Robbo and Gordon are already putting in for Benton Hall this year (we usually do Colchester but that clashes).
- Ash and Gordon are applying for Gosfield in April.
- Kim and Gordon are applying for Manor of Groves.
- Ash, Robbo and Gordon as before are applying for the 3 team at Westerham
