Old Framlinghamian Co-ordinator

College Crest
For the past 5 years Leigh Cunningham has been the first point of contact at the College for any matters concerning OF liaison. As a consequence of internal administrative reorganisation, Leigh has decided to move on. Her departure coincides with a review undertaken jointly by the College and senior Officers of the Society as to how we can best move forward, operationally, to our mutual benefit. 

One of the results of this review has been the decision to establish a new post, the specifications of which are attached.

Those who have been engaged in these discussions consider it to be fundamental to our objectives that this post should be filled by someone with very close understanding of the College and/or Brandeston, someone rooted in the culture and traditions of the schools, and who will bring to the job the sort of emotional commitment to the role that will further strengthen the bonds between OFs and the school, and between all generations of Framlinghamians.

If you feel that you are that sort of person, or if you know someone who might fit these criteria, do please act now.

Richard Sayer (President), Simon Dougherty (immediate Past President), Norman Porter (Hon Secretary)

Patrick Spraggs Wins Suffolk Amateur Championship

Patrick Spraggs (G 04-09) plans to turn professional later this year, and has crowned his final amateur season by winning the Suffolk Amateur Championship, which was contested at Haverhill Golf Club on June 9th.

Patrick put in two superb rounds of 69 for a gross 138, and was tied after 36 holes with local favourite, Lewis Whiting. However, Pat kept his cool and won a sudden-death play-off on the first extra hole.

All of us OF golfers wish Patrick every good fortune for his professional career.

College Shooting Team Gets OF Wisdom

Shooter - OF + College - April 2013
Half a dozen of our youngsters had barely seen a full-bore rifle, let along actually fired one when the masters of the OF Rifle Club got their hands on them.

By the end of the weekend the 12 keen young things were all on target (pretty much) and the odd decent score of above 30 (ex 35) was pinning the target.
