Another sunny day getting warmer all the time, Summer is definitely on the way and so is daylight savings . Starting this Saturday Night!

This week our club is in the midst of the changeover from Golf Link to Golf Connect, with only single games and no handicapping! We were excited to come out today and find that part of the changeover had happened and we all seemed to have new handicaps , most players getting at least one shot back, so there were some good scores . I am sure you will be disappointed to learn that our cards aren’t able to be processed today and when everything is finished being updated it will not accept backdated cards . So back into it next week.

On the 9th Oct we are playing a Pinehurst and on the 16 th we have our OBE Day which will be a single stableford with our OBE’s being treated to coffee and cake( there will be plenty of cake for everyone!!🍰🍰🍰🍰

We played a Single Stableford today with lots of good scores!
The winner today was Pauline Ryan with 40 points. Runner up with 39 points was Denise Melling .
Rundown :Alison Blair 39, Helen Evans 38, Vivienne Sulejmani 38, Myra Bigger 38, Pauline Benny38, Liz Edwards37, Marlene Wyatt 37, Peggy Williams 36, Pat Hodda 35, Maren Cooper 35 and Diane Hughes 35.
NTP’s : Div1 7th, Denise Fay Culpitt, Div2, Diane Hughes. Div 1 16 th , Vivienne Sulejmani , Div 2 Glenda Ballard. ProPin was won by Alison Blair $26 .
