Hopefully the slightly later start due to the visiting Vets comp didn't deter too many players. There were 17 starters and some good scores considering we had had heavy rain the day before.
Winner: Marion Tyree (40) with 34 pts
Runner-up: Susan Harrison (23) 30 pts
NTP 2nd shot 4th hole: Susan Harrison
Canberra Shield Thursday 8th November
A team of 8 players travelled to Royal Military College (RMC) to compete in this annual event. Even though Canberra had 25mm of rain the day before, the course was in great condition - the slightly softer greens were a great help.
Thankyou to the team of Pam Barker, Barbara Clayton, Jenny Ogg, Jill Scott, Jane Clifford, Helen Chadwick, Jan Tuite and Sharon Rowe for making the trip - a particularly early start for some with tee times from 08:00.
The winning team Yowani scored 13 points from its eight matches. Bowral was a very creditable 4th (in the field of 8 teams) with 8 points from 3 wins and 2 squared matches.
