9 Hole Ladies
Yvonne Hoskins

Even after all the rain we have had, the course is looking really good.  This was confirmed by our stableford haggle this week.  

Winners were - Robyn Lamborn with 21 stableford; Elaine Gavin 20; Bev Hansen and Gail Latham 19; Ali Howarth and Margaret Finsden with 18.  Well done ladies.   Also played was Round 6 of Shootout.  

The lovely box of soup ingredients for our raffle (donated by Jacqui Crossfield) was won by Janet Burmeister. Enjoy Janet.

As a special treat we were offered a 'christening drink' from Elaine and Peter Gavin on the opening of the ladies shelter on tee off hole number 9.  Thank you to Elaine and Peter and all the helpers / workers / designers who made this shelter.  It is much appreciated from the nine hole ladies.

Men's World
John 'Swampy' Marsh

With over 150mm rain over 7 days the course had to be closed, so no Saturday play.

We have a reserve day for the Carrol Cup so watch this space.

Cart users please keep to the paths where possible.

When entering the fifth green, please don’t walk down the sloping bank, as it is slippery and dangerous, come onto the green from the top end.

Scratching the green with a cross to mark nearest the pin location, is a NO, NO.  This is damaging all the hard work the greenkeepers have done to make them as perfect as possible.  If you see someone do it, tell them to STOP.
