The course is handling the recent rains quite well ... we've never seen the grass so green, no need to go to the Emerald Isle! (not that you can at the moment).

Beautiful weather on Thursday morning enticed a good field of 56 players to come and exercise their favourite sport in a Medley Single Stableford. William Mann (18) scored 37 points to win Division 1 from Greg McCoy (2) on a count back - good job Greg off a 2 handicap! Richard Trevena (23) took out Division 2 with 36 Points from Warren Coyne (24) with 35 points.
Other good scores from Jacob Cox, Paul McElhinney and Drew Glasson, all with 36 points. The ball comp went down to 31 points on a count back.
Rain on Thursday evening and Friday made the course somewhat soggy in places for Saturday's competition - thank you to those in golf carts for staying off the fairways.
All time slots were full with 64 players competing in 2 Divisions. Glen Crow (10) scored 37 points to win from Jeff Morrison (14) with 36 points.
Well done to Dianne O'Leary (25) who won Division 2 with 38 points on countback from Trent Baade (20). Other good scores included Lee Fewings with 36 points, Christian Knight, John Morgan, Andrew McKinnon, Drew Glasson and Rodney Robertson, all with 35 points.
Balls went down to 32 points on countback.
