West Vancouver's Capilano Golf and Country Club was thrilled to play host to the 36th Pacific Coast Amateur Championship last week. Young golfers from all over came to compete but none more so than Abbotsford's James Lepp whose record breaking -17 tournament score wowed everyone in attendance. This prestigious event closed with a wonderful trophy ceremony with club members and golf fans alike taking part.
