We started the Nearest the Pin Competition on our first golf day but didnt purchase a trophy until 1993. The Trophy was full up after Comp 54 and so we now have a new trophy donated by Colin Fish. Six golfers have won this back to back: Ian Cooper, John Fish, Neil Moir, Mark Staples, Richard Walsh and Steve Watson.
