Clwb Minigolf Cymraeg yn cipio Pencampwriaeth y Clybiau

After a year’s absence, the weekend of the 1/2nd October saw the 2021 British Club Championship take place at Aces Minigolf Gloucester. Six teams took part over the two days, with every team playing each other in a single league format over the 12 hole course.

Sadly the holders were unable to defend their trophy, so would there be a new name on the trophy? And indeed there was, it was the semi hometown club, The Welsh Minigolf Club, in the guise of the Welsh Wizards who emerged victorious. undefeated  over the weekend, winning three and halving two of their matches.

Four time winners Planet Hastings Crazy Golf Club (Putt out to Grass) took the runners up spot losing just the one match

Cambridgeshire & Essex after a slow start took the Bronze Medal

The Wednesday Wonkers of Planet Hastings Crazy Golf Club, finished in fourth, just missing out on a podium finish

Thanet Silverbacks, (Shelley’s King Kongs) finished in fifth place, winning two of their matches

The second Welsh team, the Warriors team finished sixth with three points from their five matches.

 

The competition was played in an excellent spirit, with plenty of close matches, and tense finishes. But there was no doubt that the Wizards were worthy winners.

 

The Victorious Wizards (L to R) – Jas Kukielka, Shaun Stimpson,  Balázs Tompa, Seve Kukielka, Martyn Williams.
