It appears that today some cards were printed using last week’s format – blue course and stroke. This error was in no way associated with the new software program and was due to human error. It was corrected later in the day. All members were very understanding of this and played their stableford round with 2 Ball best ball in conjunction as planned. The error did not effect the competition in any other way and made no difference to results.
For members’ information all competitions are preset 2 months in advance in the office and checked to ensure that they are correctly registered.
The system is new and mistakes will be made occasionally while we all become familiar with the system especially in reading two concurrent competitions with ‘Just Bathrooms’ in the title.
The match committee thanks members for their kind consideration and understanding.
Fourball Entry
While talking about today’s competition, won by Bernie McGlinchey and Ron Chilby with 46 points, it was apparent that quite a few members failed to pick a partner and enter a fourball score into the computer at the conclusion of their rounds.
The process is quite simple, enter the first team member’s score and save it (hit F2). The computer then calculates a list of available players to act as your partner. Choose and click on the one with an asterisk and look at the screen. Use the mouse to click “TEAM US”. Then enter the second players score and save. That’s all you have to do. Look on the screen and it shows you what to do.
If there is only three in your group don’t enter the third score. Keep the card separate and give it to the office. The match committee will enter your card and arrange another card for you to team with from the other single players.
Don’t forget that every time you play a Just Bathrooms 2 Ball event there is a prize for the first and second places each day. These are $35 each for first and $25 each for second.
Just because you are not a chance to win the Just Bathrooms Cup doesn’t matter. There are the prizes for each day to be won, just like Bernie & Ron and Alan & Luke did today!
President vs Captain Day – this Saturday
The names for each two person team will be printed on your card this Saturday. Also the starter will hand write a big ‘P’ or ‘C’ on the top of your card to show you which team you are representing. The team with the greatest aggregate number of points will be declared the winner and enjoy bragging rights until the next playing of the annual event. Don’t be afraid to remind your opponents of how they are playing during the round – clever sledging is encouraged.
At the conclusion of your round don’t enter your score into the computer, just put the cards in the box. There will be a prize for the best overall, best President team score and best Captain’s team score as well as runner’s up in each team. A “lowest team score’ prize will also be awarded.
For those who are not sure here is an example of how to show your score on the card. It is a ‘best ball’ and only the best score for each hole needs to be shown.
