Pittosporum ( Silver sheen) at the back of the 7th green adjacent to the 8th ladies tee, offer no protection from stray balls hit from the men's 8th tee. How do I know ? Unfortunately, I nearly took my wife and Jan Deane out with a very hard hit stray ball that went straight through the hedge and just missed them for which I apologise. Ladies, if the men are hitting off the 8th tee, please take refuge behind the large gum tree. Donation Box at Pro Shop.For those members who play outside regular competitions, whether in a casual game or as practice, we would appreciate a donation of a Gold Coin to be put in the box left on the Pro Shop counter. Whilst this not mandatory and is totally at your discretion as a member, all funds raised go to course care and reimbursement of costs for providing staff and facilities on quieter days. Your support would be most appreciated. Men's FoursomesFor those members playing in the Foursomes Championship and the Patrons Handicap Trophy next Saturday, please check with the Conditions of Competition in the Pro Shop as to eligibility. Unfortunately the Conditions on the computer require amendment, which is above my "pay grade". This will have attention later this week.
What’s on in May.
We have the Foursomes Championship qualifying round on Saturday 14th which also includes the Patron’s Trophy. Please arrange a partner and put your name in the computer. If you do not wish to go in the Foursomes Championship draw and only wish to compete for the Patrons Trophy, please advise the Pro Shop before you hit off to avoid confusion later. There is an individual Stableford for those who do not wish to play in the Foursomes, however, please be mindful, that you may have to let other players play through in order to keep the field moving. On Sunday 29th May there is the Mixed Foursomes Championship Round one, which is an Honour Board event for the best gross score and the Mixed Foursomes Handicap event round one, for the Wotton Trophy. Please arrange for your partners early, to avoid disappointment. Good luck to you all. |
