⛳👏2026 Teed Off in Style: A Standout Day for Fore Golf Society at El Valle⛳👏
What a way to tee off the New Year!
Fore Golf Society kicked off 2026 in style at our HOME course, El Valle, with one of the strongest and most exciting fields we’ve ever assembled, across all levels. We’re absolutely thrilled to be playing regularly at El Valle and delighted to see how the Society continues to grow. December saw us welcome a series of new members, and that momentum has carried straight into the New Year.
The golfing gods smiled on us, the weather behaved, and a brilliant day was enjoyed by everyone involved.
We were absolutely delighted to welcome four outstanding gentlemen from the Stephen Gallacher Foundation in Scotland. As we all know, Stephen is a giant of Scottish golf – Ryder Cup player and current Junior Ryder Cup Captain – so to host representatives from his foundation was a real honour.
A huge welcome to Stuart Johnston, Jake Johnston, Harry Bent, and Callum Kenneally. Stuart, who runs the foundation, is still playing off a remarkable scratch handicap, while Jake, Harry, and Callum are all plus-3 players currently on scholarships in the USA. The level of talent on display was exceptional, but just as impressive was the warmth and professionalism they brought to El Valle – something that certainly won’t be forgotten. They were also hugely complimentary about the course, which was great to hear.
We’re excited about developing this relationship further and continuing to bring top-class golf to El Valle. A massive thank you to GNK Golf for extending their courtesy to the guys – they’ll be a key part of growing this partnership going forward.
On the results front, the Scratch Winner was Jake Johnston, firing an excellent 72. The Points Winner, however, produced a round he’ll remember forever – 14-year-old Jack Windsor, who carded a gross 78 less 17! Yes, the handicap has since been adjusted 😄. This marks a huge step in Jack’s development, and in recognition of his performance, Stuart and the boys have invited him to join them for a round on Wednesday at La Manga. Enjoy every minute, Jack!
Thanks to everyone who took part. With new members joining, great relationships forming, and unforgettable golf being played, we’ll continue to build, grow, and improve throughout the year – but what a start it’s been. ⛳👏
