Due to the current course conditions. the Competition & Handicap Committee have agreed that until all 18 holes are available for play and whilst the par for holes 15 and 17 have been reduced to par 3 and par 4s respectively, points will not count towards the cumulative total to determine the overall winner of the trophy. To maintain a Winter Competition the Mick Pilkington Trophy will be played on the allotted days as an Extra Stableford. There will be the usual winners and prize money awarded,with the Entry Fee reduced to £2.00 and £1.00 optional ball sweep. Winning scores will be calculated over the number of holes which are open and based on the pars for holes 15 and 17 (i.e 3 and 4 respectively). Once all 18 holes are open and holes 15 and 17 have reverted back to par 4 and par 5s points will count towards the cumulative total to determine the overall winner of the trophy. Entry Fee will revert back to £3.00 and £1.00 for optional ball sweep.
