Here we go again, back to golf again. Looking forward to seeing you all back at golf.

We send our best wishes to anyone who has been affected by the recent floods. We have been in touch with the ones we know about and will update you further on Thursday.

Coming up we have an Irish Fourball on Thursday— there are plenty of spots still available!

Next after that is our AGM on Saturday afternoon at 2.30 pm— registration from 1.30 pm.

Next week is greens renovations time so no golf on Tuesday and a single stableford on Thursday.

The next Thursday the 31st March we hope to play our March Monthly Medal. If you haven’t put your money in for this year’s special events it would be helpful if you could do that this week.

Coming up the very next week is our April Monthly Medal followed by a 2 person Ambrose on Easter Thursday —- Easter Raffle time any donations for our raffle would be appreciated.

See you soon at golf regards from

Liz and Myra ⛳️⛳️⛳️⛳️⛳️⛳️⛳️

Welcome back to our Thursday Ladies Competitions for 2022

It was great to see everyone and feel like we are on the way back to normal. Some of our Qld friends have moved on to other clubs we wish them well.

We had 36 ladies turned up to play a Pinehurst aka American Foursomes. Also Coral who didn’t have a partner and played a single.

The winners were Pat Hodda and Kaye Mills and the runners up were Kerry Campbell and Denise F Culpitt , they lost by one quarter of a Point.

The Propin was won by Marilyn Burns. We had a generous rundown because we had trophy donors for all the winners and runners up.

Next week is a single stableford and the week after is the 2021 GoldMedal Playoff. Coming up is the 2021 Foursomes Championships so start organising your partners.

We also celebrated Judy Mounts 80th Birthday— welcome to the OBE sisterhood!

Cheers from Myra and Liz

We had 44 players who lined up for a pinehurst on a perfect day.

Winners were Katrina and Brian Springfield. Runners up were Denise Melling and Rick Culpitt. Second Runners up were Kaye Mills and Ross Telfer.

After the game we got together for a few drinks and something to eat. BBQ’d beef and chicken kebabs with salads followed by Xmas fare for dessert. A big!! Thank you to Ken and Barry for their cooking and all the helpers with the setting up, the food and the cleaning up.

The whole day was sponsored by our golf club. We had a lovely array of raffles —- hams, wine, beer and hampers. Some provided by the club and some donated . Thank you to Myra’s daughter Fiona for selling the tickets.

Twin Towns President Brian and directors Sharon and Ken joined us also Patricia from Banora Point Real Estate.

Thankyou to our Sunday Master of Ceremonies Rosie who puts our day together , organises our games , does the computer and then the presentations

We were sad to have to leave at 6 pm but we really didn’t need anything more to eat or drink!!

Next Sunday we finish of our year with a 4 person Ambrose sponsored by Jason.

Come along and join us and welcome back our friends from over the border!!

Cheers from Rosie

Well our Xmas Breakup has finally been and gone with out a hitch. No rain, just a bit steamy and damp. The course was in great condition considering the rain we have had and the birds doing their best to chew up the 9th and 18th greens as fast as Roger can fixe them.

We were treated to a free day — golf , lunch and drinks and a golf ball .

35 players and several guests including Sharon Styman from Twin Towns Board and Patricia from our Sponsor of the day Banora Real Estate, all enjoyed the meal cooked by Ken and Barry and the lovely array of sweets brought in by our ladies.

Today we played a Canadian 2stroke the winners were : Nancy Douglas and Cheryl Kelly runners up were : Kaye Mills and Pauline Ryan 2nd runners up were :Bev Culpitt and Daphne Andersen Other highlights of the golf were Nancy Douglas had a hole in one on the 7th and Rosie Connolly won the Pro Pin.

We also incorporated our Presentation of Special Events Prizes for the year so it was a nice surprise for some who had forgotten what they had paid their money in for at the start of the year.

The raffles were a great success , thanks to all who bought tickets, brought in goodies, sold tickets and helped put our hampers together.

A special thanks to everyone you have all done your bit one way or another to make our day a success and to make our club the BEST.

We missed our friends from over the border and look forward to seeing them again soon.

Wishing everyone a great Xmas and New Year see you all in 2022

If you have a problem with that talk to someone on the committee we will be happy to help.

Well once again the weather beat us . We did get to play 9 holes before the rain came down. Myra in her wisdom decided to make it a nine hole comp otherwise I would probably have talked Peggy into playing the whole 18 holes in the rain.

So 17 of us played a single stableford Winner with 21 points Liz Edwards R/up Denise Melling with 20 points(sorry Denise) Ntp’s Liz Edwards and Denise Melling, no Pro Pin we didn’t get that far!

Plans are well under way For our Xmas Breakup day on the 9 th December. This means we only have one more week of golf before party day! The sheet is open raffle tickets are on sale we will have a newsletter ready with details on Thursday, the weather doesnt look promising for the next week so come down and checkup on Tuesday or Thursday, remember the party is on no matter what !

Cheers
