Golf - Sunday 5th April 2009

Today was the first day to change back from daylight savings and it was noticable how quickly the day seemed to close in.

The event of the day was a Singles for Men and Ladies plus a medley teams 1 x 2 x 3.

We had 122 starters with 4 visitors from Everglades, Magenta Shores and Wyong.

Our playing partners were George and Vicki Foster who were great team players finding some good three pointers when we needed them most & Peter played a steady game getting two birdies. Our best hole was the 15th where we scored 10 points and my 5/2 was not required. My team did not have as much trouble with the greens as I did and neither did some of the others who came in with some great scores.

TEAM RESULTS:

WINNERS: Terry Coyle, Sandra Coyle, Ronda Jordon and Bert Jordon - 89 points

RUNNERS UP: Julie Hazzard, John Hazzard, Mark Stimpson & Anne Stimpson - 85 points on a countback.

MEN'S SINGLES RESULTS:
