HOST professional David Stanton, with three of the club’s juniors, raced away with the team prize at North Oxford’s Pro-Am tournament.
They finished with 112 stableford points to triumph by nine shots from another North Oxford fourball.
The professionals found the course a stiff challenge, with Burnham’s Scott Marshall being the only player to break par with his one-under round of 66.
But the North Oxford’s juniors left the field standing in the team event.
l OXFORD Golf Club have teamed up with a local hotel to offer a golf, spa and leisure membership package.
The partnership with the De Vere Oxford Thames Hotel, means members can play at Southfield and use the hotel’s leisure facilities.
Stephen Nicholson, the club’s general manager, said: “We know how popular the spa, gym and leisure element is to members.
“Following recommendations from several members, who are already using the hotel, it therefore made sense to team up with this quality local facility “No other golf club in the locality offers this type of partnership.”
