Meanwhile, Crow Nest Park captain Craig Helliwell and his wife Tracey completed a marathon 72-hole challenge to raise funds for this year’s captain’s charity the Calder Valley Search & Rescue.

Mr captain and Tracey played 18 holes at Crow Nest Park, followed by 18 at Lightcliffe, Willow Valley and back to Crow Nest Park for the final 18.

After a cool, clear start to the morning the games were all played in hot sunshine, an excellent mid-summers day. The pair had a rousing welcome back into the clubhouse at 9pm, after a 4.30am start, looking remarkably fresh, where Craig announced he had walked 27.5kms and taken 43,400 steps.

They managed to raise in excess of £600.
