I beat Peter Payne 2 - 0 at the United Services Club tonight. Nice table, and thanks to Barney and Stuart Chant for scoring.

On the assumpton that you are staying in or near Horsham, you actually have plenty of choice.
Mannings Heath - Just south of Horsham. 2 18-hole courses, 1 well-established and the other much newer. Not for beginners and also quite expensive, however the older of the courses is a great course; one of my favourites.
Cottesmore - Between Horsham and Crawley. 3 9-hole loops, plenty of trees, ditches and water. Easier and cheaper than Mannings.
Tilgate Forest - in Crawley, so a little way from Horsham, but not too far. As the name suggests, plenty of woodland, but a very pretty course and quite reasonably priced.
Rookwood - Just on the outskirts of Horsham. Newest of the courses and probably the best for beginners. Again reasonably priced.
Horsham Country Club - think that's what it's called. Again on the outskirts of Horsham, it's one I haven't played, but I believe it's a 9-hole par-3 course.
There are plenty more within 20-30 mins of Horsham (at least 10), but these are the nearest.
Hope this helps.

I think Clive is spot on, but will confirm with Barney.

I think you'll find that Paul Barnett is the defending champion. He won the Seniors title once, if not twice, and still has the trophy at home. He keeps rabbiting on that since reaching 50 he is unbeaten in this competition, so hopefully someone will shut him up this year :) ;)

Tony, will you be publishing a list of contact numbers, both for the players as well as the venues? I am sorry to say I have no idea who my opponent is or how to contact him. P.S. Please can you spell my name correctly - it's "ei" not "ie" ;)
