IMPORTANT Vale Royal news and The latest Stuburt Order of Merit

Maxitours at Vale Royal cancelled – event moved to snow free North Wales Golf Club

Dear Maxitours player

Due to freezing temperatures once again tomorrow and lots of ground snow Vale Royal will be unfit for play on Wednesday. Unfortunately the event at this great course has been cancelled.

I have phoned various courses to try and get game for my players and the best I can do is North Wales which is in ‘really excellent condition’ according to Club pro Richard Bradbury and they can accommodate us between 10.24am- 12pm

This is a lovely links course and well worth a visit.

Cost is just £20 which includes prizes- the field is limited to just twelve 4 balls and will be on a first come first served basis- please let me know if you wish to play!!

Thank you for your patience, Tim
