RCI Christel House Europe 2015 Golf Open

The beautiful parkland course at Badgemore Park Golf Club in Henley-on-Thames was again the venue for a hugely successful event, held in warm summer weather. Title Sponsors RCI and Signature Sponsors Nexus Leisure headed up a host of generous supporters and 14 teams competed for the Ron Haylock Memorial trophy.

Worthy winners were the First National Trustee Company team, captained by Lee Dowling (Senior Vice President EME at Marriott Vacations Worldwide) who led his team mates Sue and John Colby and Peter Coles to victory. Team “manager” Lisa Migani, Business Development Director for FNTC, said: “we have been proud supporters of the work of Christel House for many years and we applaud the achievements of their students; I am so thrilled that our team has won this competition, it was a great day in aid of a wonderful cause”.

Two teams from RCI, Team RCI 2 and Team RCI 3, tied for second place.
