The golfing season at the Royal Malta Golf Club (RMGC) would not be complete without the inclusion of the most popular group competition.

The Captains League, a staple on the calendar since 1986, is a team event whereby the last seven captains of the RMGC choose their strongest players and challenge for the trophy over seven rounds, played once a month from December until June.

This prestigious competition has once again received valued support from NEXIA BT, a leading audit, tax and advisory firm.

The first round of this year’s Captains League was played recently.

After a three-way-tie on 36 points, Sean Bradshaw emerged as winner of the first round. Mario Balzan Demajo was the runner-up and Frank O’Lorcain placed third.

The leading team after the opening round are Ken Micallef’s selection with a total of 171 points, closely followed by Ian Macpherson’s team on 170.

The prize-giving ceremony was held at the RMGC clubhouse.

Trophies were presented by Ron Feenan, the RMGC captain, and Anais Mathieu, on behalf of sponsors NEXIA BT.
