Hi everyone i hope you all had a fabulous Easter break and are well rested for the working week ahead, hahaha. Who would have thought it was the easter long weekend with over 30 players showing up for the Phil Edwards sponsored stableford day. I guess that is the normal turn out for our club at the present. At the end of the day there is always a winner and having a blistering April is Penny Pearce winning the day with 44 point, well done and well played, in second position with 43 points was Jason White and in 3rd place Phil Edwards with 41 points almost winning his own day.
ps. Klaus what happened, your name was not in the top two !!!!! just a temporary (green) set back for you.
On Saturday many firsts for the golf course and the club were about to be reviled:
1. There was a temporary green in play on all 18 holes
2. if you landed on the green ( that little white circle with a flag in the middle) it was an instant give me ( no putting required )
3. i saw a greens keeper working on the course. ( almost required a defibrillator )
4. Over 30 players on a Saturday long weekend.
5. i could see the base of almost every tree on the course
6. Maybe not a first for some, but all the greens were cored and sanded. ( were's that defibrillator )
7. Everyone finished the round and no-one will be handicapped.
Once again a big thank you to Chris for working so hard to ensuring the Belair Golf course slowly but surely returns to its playing best.
For most of us getting that little white ball to land in the that little white circle was very difficult to say the least, i am sure the 12th and 13th holes will give some player nightmares for a while to come. But for Paul McKenna one hole was not an issue having temporarily conquered the temporary green scoring an eagle a first for Paul, wish i knew what hole it was.
A few reminders:
1. ticket books need to start coming back with the money collected, the draw is on Saturday 6th of May so please make every effort to meet this dead line
2. the second away game is on Sunday the 30th April putting comp 9.15am tee off 10am
3. club shirts, hats and umbrellas are now available, see Tony
See you all Saturday
cheers
Kymbo
