In the end the MV ladies team were too strong for us, winning with a score (reflecting the difficulty of playing in the rain and cold): -17 to -21. Well done Alison Mooney (MV Captain) and the team who retain the UNITY CUP for another year.
Winners on the day were Alison and her partner Annette Hayter with +4, from the best Bowral team of Leonie Carroll and Rosemary Downing +2. Runners up were Kim Parsons and Elizabeth Shepherd (MV) square, from Anne Geddes and Beth Chambers -1, for Bowral.
NTP on 14th was Toni Clarke and Drive and Pitch on 15th Alison Mooney with a Birdie 2!
Wattle Day on 4th August is our annual Open Day - 39 players are entered for tomorrow’s Stableford game. I am keeping an eye on the weather hoping the rain doesn’t beat us AGAIN! The course is open and carts still allowed today, so unless it gets much worse we should be okay. Watch this space!
Morning tea will be available in the pro shop for members and visitors – contributions welcome! (A plate of slice, muffins, etc ?) Tea and coffee provided!
Some important diary dates:
- Donkin Cup Round 2 is now scheduled for 15th September.
- 16th August - Ambrose event is now a 3 person Ambrose. We would like to encourage 10 hole and new players to play with more experienced players so that everyone gets around the course in an acceptable time! Please enter your names with this in mind…discuss with the pro-shop or call Carole or me.
- Second round of the Foursomes Championships on 18th August is now closed on the computer, as this is a seeded draw after Round 1. Additional daily players can add their names after the draw is entered and entries unlocked (after 11 August).
