Lovely to see a good field of ladies out on the course today doing battle with the little white ball and a howling wind! The scores indicated that there was plenty of run and wind assistance to be had if you could keep the ball on the fairways. Winners today with a score of 47 were Pauline Benny and Christine Waghorn from Liz Edwards and Fiona Almond with a score of 46. Well done ladies.
Rundown went to Colleen Kelly and Judy Mount 45 Pts; Denise F Culpitt and Marlene Wyatt 45 pts; Myra Biggar and Pauline Ryan 44 pts; Denise Melling and Denise M Culpitt 44 pts; Marilyn Berryman and Lyn Simpson 43 pts ;Maren Cooper and Nancy Douglas 42 pts and Diane Hughes and Helen Evan’s 42 pts.
If you had one of those good scores today make sure you check your handicaps before your next game.

Today we had our annual Tombola stall, thank you ladies for your generous donations of goodies. I’m sure everyone enjoyed selecting items from the table – everything you could think of was available from cakes to plants !!
Next week we will be playing from a temporary tee on the 1st and 10 th holes, please be careful moving onto the course as there will be a lot of work going on in this area. Ladies will still be playing the 1st and 10th as a Par 5. No eagles will be paid on these holes from the temporary tees.
Have a great week and we’ll see everyone next week for a Canadian.

Twin Towns has made the decision to change the location of the 1st and 10th tees due to ongoing safety concerns involving golf balls striking nearby homes.
For some time, residents in these houses have faced the risk of golf balls being hit onto their properties. This has raised legitimate concerns about the safety of residents, visitors and the homes themselves.
The tee changes are intended to reduce the risk of golf balls being hit towards residential properties and create a safer environment for everyone.
While changes to the course may take some adjustment for golfers, safety must remain a priority. Twin Towns believes these changes are a necessary step to address the ongoing issue and help protect the surrounding homes and residents.
We appreciate the understanding and cooperation of all members and golfers as these changes are introduced.
