The Royal Jersey Junior Team that won the Hampshire Green Jackets Knock-out competition has been nominated for the Aurigny Junior Team of the Year award in the 2011 Sportingbet Sports Personality of the Year Awards. The awards dinner, which will be broadcast live on Channel TV, takes place at The Hotel De France on 26 January 2012 and the guest speaker will be former British number 1 tennis player Tim Henman.

 
RJGC’s squad for the successful campaign last year was Luke Denoual, Dan Scriven, Steven Anderson and Ryan Evans.  Of these, Denoual and Scriven are now attending Bournemouth University.  Both Anderson and Evans will attend the awards dinner where they will be joined by the other nominees from Jersey Rugby Club U18s and Guernsey Hampshire Cross Country Under 13s.
 
The award is designed to recognise achievements by junior teams nationally or locally. Three or four teams will be selected from the Channel Islands by the team of judges. This award is designed to reward one team who, in the view of the judges, has shown excellent ability and attitude. Teamwork and good disciplinary records will also have a strong bearing on the selections.
 
At least 90% of the active team members of the short-listed teams must have been qualified to represent an under 18 team at the time of the achievement. In addition to the trophy and the prestige, the winner will also receive a bursary of £1000 from sponsors to put towards training expenses.
 
The team needs to either be playing within an island competition for its age group or must be representing their island or island club on a wider scale.
 
The award is designed to recognise teams consisting of four members or more. In exceptional circumstances a team of two or three will be considered.
 
The short list and the winner are chosen by the team of judges.
 
STOP PRESS - The boys were unlucky and were not awarded the Young Team of the Year. The prize was awarded to the Jersey Under 18's Rugby team. Well Done to the lads for making the nominations they should be justifiably proud of their achievement.

8th hole redesign has commenced

The latest hole to be redesigned as part of the Thomson, Perrett & Lobb (TPL) project has commenced. The 8th hole is undergoing some significant changes. The front left bunker has been removed and the front right has been enlarged and moved closer into the green.

The two bunkers to the left of the green are being positioned wider apart and also enlarged. all bunkers will remain 'pot bunkers' in keeping with  a links type course. The two rear bunkers have been removed. The approach to the green has been extended towards the tee. This has been reshaped and will be turfed next week.

The final aspect of the hole will be a new route for the path leading down to the green from the tee. The old path is a little too steep and this will be removed and replaced with a new path with a much more gentle gradient.

The image below is of the hole from the tees. This and a couple more images are available on the gallery section.

Therefore, members are requested to remove ALL trolleys and other equipment from the trolley shed by Tuesday 31st January 2012.

It is anticipated that the works will take approximately 6 - 8 weeks to complete.
