September 17th, 2015, Medal Winners, Photos

Sam Mulholland, aged 28 won the “A” grade September medal with a net 68 off a handicap of 10. He also won the Max Allen Memorial Trophy, his first individual trophy won at the club. Sam is an avid golfer, who can be seen practicing regularly on the course. As Sam was leaving the club after presentation, I met him in the locker room and once again offered my congratulations. He was so excited with his achievement he was “jumping out of his skin”. It was a pleasure to see enthusiasm rewarded. Well done Sam, a worthy trophy winner.


Dennis Neale won the “B” Grade Medal with a net 71 off a handicap of 22. Dennis is a newish member, somewhere between Ray's and Sam's age,  who has firmly entrenched himself into our club and is well regarded by all members. Unfortunately Dennis was unable to be at the presentation and I have not had a chance to offer my congratulations, however he is a very consistent and competitive golfer and finishes around the top on most outings. Well done Dennis.

Ray Smee who is 84 years young, an ex-Olympian and all round good guy, won the “C” grade Medal for September with a round of net 70 off a handicap of 24. I had the privilege of playing golf with Ray on that day and a lot can be learnt from his level temperament, consistency and accuracy. As Ray say’s “ I can’t hit far anymore” but does that really matter. With his handicap he plays “par” golf and loves every bit of the competition. Well done Ray and nice to see you back on the course after your recent illness.

Conclusion. It’s great to see the younger players joining our club and our thanks must go to the Mulholland clan (Alex is Club Champion) for the support they give. Younger players, bring younger players, as we are seeing on the course. However, as we all can’t win, you don’t have to be young or old to enjoy success at our club. Success comes in all forms, just competing by playing to your handicap, enjoying your round on our beautiful course, the company of others or the fellowship enjoyed in the club house afterwards, should be rewarding enough. It keeps us all young. - Paul Carroll
