Lee Freeman, Chief Constable Humberside Police and Chair of PSUK Men’s Golf Section said “This ia great event to advertise the best of police sport” and thanked Ian E Campbell executive officer of Police Sport UK for organising and Bernard Edwards of Hublsoft for being the main sponsors. He also thanked Tibco and Sprinklir for sponsoring the two ‘nearest the pin’ awards.
The day concluded with dinner and prize presentations at the Golf Club.
Special place went to Kris Aves, retired metropolitan police officer who was blown up in the London Bridge terrorist attack. Kris is now permanently disabled but thanks to generous sponsorship has a disabled Golf buggy that let’s him play and compete in his beloved sport.
Julie Finegan, Ladies Team Manager said “On behalf of the ladies who played, and the ladies committee we want to say a really big thank you for including us in this the first of hopefully many more events to come. From registration right throughout the day, everything ran smoothly and was really well organised. All our ladies enjoyed the golf and the meal in the evening and I think can honestly say we felt included and appreciated throughout the day. So again thank you for the invite. We were a little unsure of what to expect but having experienced it at first hand I can feed back to all the Ladies what a great day we had.”
Many sponsors taking part are already looking forward to the next event.
Hopefully we can repeat the process in 2023.
