An exceptional success with the 2016 TTBS National Golf at the Belfry complex
Good weather favoured the TTBS National Golf on Friday 8th July played on the world class PGA National and Brabazon courses at the Belfry, Wishaw, Sutton Coldfield, with main sponsor, the Carver Group based in Wolverhampton and supported by Steico UK, MetsaWood, W.Howard Group, Egger and Premdor.
A return to the Belfry attracted an excellent attendance from the industry and guests, to enjoy a morning 10 hole Greensomes on the PGA National course , followed by lunch in the Sutton Suite and an afternoon 18 hole individual Stableford on the superb Brabazon course.
The event culminated with a Dinner & Presentation in the Sutton Suite. The overall winners and regional trophy winners are listed below.
Robert Bruce, Sales & Marketing Director for MH Southern & Co Ltd and TTBS National President attended the event and spoke at the dinner, to thank Henry Carver MD for the Carver Group and the sub-sponsors for their support and explained how important the National Golf event had become in the Society’s annual fundraising calendar. In 2015, the Society had provided over £140,000.00 in benefits to the many UK timber trade beneficiaries.
He also thanked Ivan Savage, the TTBS General Manager & National Vice President for the excellent organisation of the National Golf once again.
Henry Carver responded to thank all the attending suppliers for their support following the disastrous fire at the Carver main depot and the subsequent rebuilding, which was now complete, providing a premises fit for a successful future.
He also thanked Ivan Savage, who had been the Carver Group Sales Director, until his retirement in 2008 and thereafter in his appointment with the TTBS, for the first class golf event that everyone had enjoyed at the Belfry.
The 2017 TTBS National Golf will be held on Friday 7th July at Slayley Hall, Northumberland and will be sponsored by Lonza Wood Protection
