Midland Section
A big loss in 2024 after a long fight. Dave Clark sadly lost his battle and passed on.
Ex PIGS President and Midlands Captain, Dave absolutely loved our society and he will be remembered.

Midland Pigs at Handsworth Golf Club
Thursday 18th August 2022
It has been quite a few years since Midland Pigs visited Handsworth Golf Club and during the interval three new holes have been fashioned to replace holes lost to a Utilities land purchase. Whilst obviously recent additions these new holes fit sympathetically with the original course contours and were very playable.
Extremely lucky with the weather considering the forecast of heavy downpours we all enjoyed the course and escaped any rain. The tree lined fairways obviously benefitting from shade they provided and the greens were in very good condition and quite difficult to read.
We all enjoyed the course and the day, finishing off with a very satisfying meal which didn't cost the earth!
Thank you Handsworth for a lovely day and, our particular thanks to Bob Wright and Chris Hall (F T Transformers UK) for sponsoring the event.
