News from the Course, 11 July

Veterans News

The fourth round of the Trevor Bell Memorial Shield competition was held at Port Kembla Golf Club on Monday 10th July. For a change the weather was bright and sunny with light winds following the weekend’s winds.

The Jamberoo team did remarkedly well on the day with their six counting scores totalling 208 points, only three points behind the home club, Port Kembla, which scored 211 points. Jamberoo has taken over the lead in the competition with a one-point lead over Port Kembla. Early season leader, Links Shell Cove, is now 32 points behind Jamberoo. This is the first time this year that any team has scored over 200 points.

In the individual competition Ken Holt came third on a countback with 37 points and four others picked up a ball in the ball comp.

The next round is at The Vale on 14^th August.

Well done, Team!

Members Comp Results.

Hurricane force winds with gusts over 100km per hour and the wind swirling about the trees and across the greens, making it difficult to walk in a straight line, not to mention remaining stationary over the ball, it was a day to be savoured by the brave 81 players who ventured out.

Eleven saw the error in their ways and came in early and who could blame them?

It started out as a beautiful Saturday morning but about 8.30 the winds arrived catching everybody. Nobody managed to score 36 points and to score over 30 was an achievement in itself.

Individual winners on the day:

Andrew Ball 35 pts 2nd: Brian Aboozaid 34 pts (c/b) 3rd: Lidia Waine 34 pts (c/b)

Aggregate Fourball winners:

Matthew Page & Jordan Green (Shoalhaven Heads) 65 pts 2nd: Rod Poidevin & Bob Neilson 63 pts 3rd: Matthew Rodgers & Lidia Waine 62 pts (c/b).

After the comp the Champagne 9 players went out and then the wind really started to blow!

Well played to all who ventured out.
