Tom Prentice donated the Salver. He was for many years a trustee of the club and a stalwart of the senior section.

Don Carmichael donated the Jubilee Jug to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the senior section. Don was senior captain in 1992.

The Noel Highton Challenge Trophy was donated in 1992. Noel Highton joined the club in 1981. Noel was a tall, slim, elegant golfer who had played off a single figure handicap in his prime. One of his claims to fame was his knowledge of real ale, both taste and cost as he was a qualified accountant whose clients included Jennings Brewery in Cumbria.
