Wednesday 26 April, Stableford:
The Club was pleased to see a very healthy field fronting the starter on this day, with no less than mid-40s playing. This allowed for 2 mid-week grades, ( a rare treat), and the healthiest score was posted by B-Grader, David Waterman. David’s 39 points just pipped Mario De Vincentis by one, with both men outperforming any from A-Grade. Clint Toohey’s 37 points won the day for him, again just edging past Paul Mason, whose 36 points earned him the runner-up voucher on a tight countback from Neil Leckenby. Balls were won by any player who posted a 33 or better. And NTPs went to John Haynes (3rd), Ron Wilson (9th), and to David Wappett, who snared both the 12th and 15th.
Saturday 29 April, Stroke and final round of the Club Championships:
The equal best Nett score was posted by Shane Campbell, from A-Grade, with a strong -65 Nett. Good work, Bomber. Kevin Smith returned a fine 67 off-the-stick, for a Nett 68, giving him the runner-up prize. Lance Atwell took home the top honours in B-Grade with another fine 65 Nett. This sent Gator flying up the Club Championship leaderboard to just miss out on catching the run-away leader, Paul Osbourne. John Hall posted another impressive result, with a Nett 67 earning him the runner-up voucher. In C-Grade, Stuart Patrick won the day with a solid Nett 68, to just edge out Warren Sheargold, who scored a Nett 68 just proving that he can play consistent golf. Balls extended to 73 only. NTP winners were Jason Kennedy (3rd), Geoff Sharp (5th), Luke Patrick, (9th), Ken White, (12th) and Michael Pinkster (15th).
