The Grafton Morrish is organised by the Public Schools Old Boys Golf Association and runs regional qualifying to determine the 48 finalists each year. | ||||

Note 4. | The Scratch Cup is principally a trial for the Halford Hewitt and no handicaps are allowed. If there is sufficient space, all members are welcome to play. | |||
Other open competitions are open to all members, regardless of handicap, and played off full handicap (although past year winners are awarded a ‘society cut’). | ||||
Trophies, the oldest of which is the Hornsey Walker Cup, are awarded to the winner of each open competition. | ||||
Members’ guests, male or female, are welcome at all open meetings, although such guests cannot win one of the trophies. | ||||
Invitations to matches and events are circulated by email by the Secretary (peterbgale@sky.com). | ||||
There is a cost of entry to cover green fees, meal etc. Please ensure your email address is up to date and available to the secretary. | ||||
The Challenge Cup is an annual knockout competition open to all members, played off handicap. The draw is made at the annual dinner, so entries must be received by then. | ||||
The player drawn first can choose the venue for each match. The loser pays any green fee (hence everyone except the eventual winner pays one green fee). |
