However, members are advised that strict social distancing protocols will apply. The club will be ensuring all members follow the guidelines so we all stay safe and healthy.
The club will be open from next Wednesday June 3. Raffles and meals will be back from next Friday night. Everyone will be looking forward to returning to some form of ‘normality’ as we work our way out of the pandemic.
Members have been able to continue enjoying their golf throughout the restriction period, and we are now back to having four in a group.
Hopefully before too long we will see the return of charity days, which have been postponed.
Last Saturday was a stableford event and qualifying round for the Falkiner singles knock-out. A grade winner as Jimmy Poka jnr with a one over par round for 38 points, from Chris Mitsch on 37. In B grade Vicki Hutton had 37 to defeat Leigh Strongman 34, in C grade Tony Tonta had 40 to win by a shot from Jen Choice, and in D grade Robin Hood scored 39 to defeat Mandy Phyland on countback.
In Wednesday’s stableford event Jimmy Poka jnr scored his second A grade victory for the week with 36 points, winning on countback from Leigh Chappell. In B grade Tom Maw had 40 points, defeating Alan Lord on 37, and in C grade Lee Pattinson had 37, two clear of runner-up Graham Huntington.
The ladies event last Thursday was washed out.
Don’t forget to get your entries sorted for the Autumn Classic, which is on next weekend. Even though restrictions have been lifted it has been decided to stick with the fourball aggregate format.
Tomorrow is a fourball best ball and the qualifying round for the Eastman knockout.
The high school charity day was scheduled for Sunday, but like all charity days it has been cancelled at this point.
