News from the Course – 28th February

Womens Pennants Commence.

Yesterday saw the playing of the first round of the 2023 WGI Pennants.

I am pleased to advise that both the Gold and Bronze teams enjoyed a successful day at Kiama.

The Bronze Pennant won 3-0 against Gerringong.

Marie Smith won 5/4

Lidia Waine won 3/2

Rhonda McKinley won 1 up

The Gold Pennant won 5-0 against Shoalhaven Heads.

Elizabeth Armstrong won 8/7

April Van Woerkom won 3/2

Judi O’Brien won 2/1

Kay Brennan won 2/1

Linda McGlinchey won 3/2

At St George’s Basin the Silver Pennant team played Sussex Inlet.

Unfortunately Jamberoo went down 3/2

For Jamberoo, Gail Rutledge went right through to the 18th in a close match to win 1 up and Lyn Kuskey won handily 4/3. Jenelle Anderson, Shirley Dixon and Lynne Beringer all played well but lost in close matches.

Saturday Monthly Medal BBQ.

After (or perhaps before) your round this Saturday we are holding our regular sausage sizzle.

For a $4 donation you will receive a sausage and onion sandwich in return.

We will have EFTPOS facilities available for payment or you can pay by cash.

Enjoy a beverage in your new Jamberoo stubby holder as you eat your sausage sandwich.

Congratulations to Susi Delamont.

Jamberoo member and keen Sunday golfer Susi Delamont recorded a hole-in-one last Sunday on the ninth hole. Reports were that it was a perfectly played shot that, like a tracer bullet, never left the hole and rolled nicely onto the green and into the hole for her first ace. An oustanding achievement as Susi is only new to golf.

Some of us have been waiting over 50 years and we are now officially jealous!

Congratulations Susi.

Care of the Course.

Please be mindful on the greens of how you remove your ball from the hole.

Do not whip out the ball using your putter and be careful lifting the flag from the hole. Pulling the flag out at an angle and grazing the edge is damaging the lip of the hole .

If you make a scuff mark near the hole with your feet then tap them down before you leave!

Don’t stand too close to the hole when retrieving your ball. Later in the day with soft greens, this will lead to a ‘volcano effect’, causing putts to veer off unexpectantly.

And of course, please repair your pitch marks!
