Appeal after trophies stolen from Silverdale Golf Club

The Coronation Cup, one of a number of trophies stolen from Silverdale Golf Club

Police are appealing for information after a number of trophies were stolen during a burglary at Silverdale Golf Club last week.

The club on Red Bridge Lane in Silverdale, is thought to have been broken into at some point overnight between the 8th and 9th of July. Nine trophies worth nearly £1,000 in total were taken from two trophy cabinets but it is not believed that anything else was stolen.

Officers are investigating the theft and are urging people to come forward.

Sergeant James Martin said: “We want to do all we can to return the property to the club – These trophies are not just of monetary value but are of sentimental value to many people and so we would urge anyone with any information at all that could help to come forward.

“If anybody in the area either heard or saw anything suspicious on the night in question, or perhaps in the days and nights leading up to the burglary, then please get in touch.”

Anybody with any information can contact police on 101 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111 or on-line at Crimestoppers-uk.org. No personal details are taken, information is not traced or recorded and you will not go to court.
