The fourth match day was played at Golfclub Teutoburger Wald Halle. For the first time this year, the team consisted purely of AK30 players - meaning that all the players were under 50 and we didn't need to call on experienced veterans from the AK50 team.
The condition of the course was exceptionally good, but the weather was rather moody with gusty winds. All players struggled with these conditions and it was not easy to achieve a good score on such a demanding course.
Only 2 of the 6 players in our team managed to break the 100 stroke mark. Aidan rehabilitated himself with a gross 91 after the Bad Driburg disaster and team captain Andreas finished with an 80.
In the end, we finished with 115 strokes over CR, just behind the hosts with 112 and were able to collect 4 points.
We now lead the league with 17 points ahead of GC Bad Driburg with 14 points.
As there is only one match left, promotion will be decided between these two clubs. If we get at least 3 points, i.e. finish at least third, we can celebrate promotion. It's entirely in our hands, or rather our clubs.
The last match day will be played on September 7th at GC Lippstadt - a course also known as the "Blue Monster" - as there are water hazards on almost every hole.

The Josefs brewery from Bad Lippspringe took over the sponsorship for our Josefs Stableford Open on May 19th.

Founded in 2000, the beverage manufacturing company was the first to offer jobs for people with disabilities.The Josefs Stableford Open on May 19th started with sunshine and a joyful atmosphere.

After the first flights took off, there were a few rain showers again and again.

At our waterhole there were bratwursts and delicious Josefs drinks. In addition to the Josefs Pils, Weizen, the non-alcoholic Radler was also very well received. Also non-alcoholic drinks, such as the fair lemon soda, fair orange soda as well as the fair cola.

After our great catering crew had half of the flights with them on the 12th hole, the weather changed instantly. Floods of rainwater, hail and thunderstorms brought the tournament to a standstill for almost an hour and a half. The golfers dried, warmed up and refreshed themselves in the clubhouse, where the NAAFI had provided a delicious buffet.

There was great joy after the tournament management gave the okay that the game could be resumed. At around 7 p.m. all golfers had finished their game and, in addition to other delicious Josefs drinks, there was an award ceremony. In addition to voucher packages from Josefs-Brewery for massages, there were Vitality Lounge membership vouchers and lots of good beer.

An all-round successful tournament, whose atmosphere and mood was not affected by the thunderstorms and rain showers.

A big thank you to Pamela, Dave, and Laura for their amazing support.
Thanks to Geordie for taking over as starter and getting every golfer into the tournament well.
As always, a big thank you to the entire BAGC team. Thank you for a successful tournament!

We would like to thank the Josefs Brewery for their spnsorship

and are now looking forward to continuing selling their drinks.

Home games are the highlight of a league season. Does home advantage count, or can the
visitors beat the home players on their pitch?
A home game starts a few days earlier. Our head greenkeeper Aidan has been working hard
with his team to get our course in excellent condition. Aidan and his team were supported by
many volunteers, including Lucas, Dave, Tam and Norman. Many thanks to all of them!
Herbert sent the players out onto the course in perfect conditions. During the round, Dominik
acted as marshal to ensure that nobody got lost.
After the round, the players were welcomed by Pam & Dave with cool drinks and delicious
salad and bratwurst. Thank you very much for your support!
Our team of Andreas, Aidan, Lucas, Jörg, Chris and Felix were able to capitalise on their
home advantage. Even though not everyone was happy with their result, we needed a total of
34 strokes less than the second-placed team.
Our team now leads with 10 points ahead of Bad Driburg and Paderborner Land with 7 points
each and ahead of Lippstadt and Teutoburger Wald with 3 points each.
Thanks to Herbert, Debbie and Stephen for the scoring and administration.
The next league match will be played on 15.06.24 in Bad Driburg.
