F-Troop - Monday 1st August 2022

 

F-Troop Morning Tea - Di Beechey, Paul Smith, Rob Benson, John Hollebon, Duncan Dyer, Trevor Harrison, Peter Martin (Sam Knox, Ron Gowing, Jan Martin)

We had nine volunteers this morning with some of our members on sick leave etc.

On hand we had Sam Knox, Duncan Dyer, Trevor Harrison, Rob Benson, Paul Smith, John Hollebon, Ron Gowing, Peter Martin and Jan Martin.

Paul Smith was a welcome new starter this morning.

We were able to work out on the course today even though it is still boggy in places.

Projects worked on were loose Timber and Rubbish Pick up around the course, removing trees at the wood heap, trimming of the camellias at the 18th, removal of shrubs in the front gardens and weed control, clean up underneath the clubhouse, paths to the 1st and 10th, wedding garden and practice nets, weeding of the 6th tee tranquility garden.

Morning Tea of fresh sandwiches was appreciated by all. Di Beechey joined us for morning tea and to say hello.

YES! WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE!

Senior Pennants Results - 31st July 2022

Gosford played their final match of Pennants yesterday with B and C grade playing against Kooindah at Mangrove Mountain. A Grade was due to play their game last week but Kooindah could not field a team.

 

B grade had another strong win 2 ½ to ½ . Even though Everglades has two matches to play they are unable to catch Gosford and we will win the Pennant for the second year in a row. Well done to Bill and the boys and we look forward to a three-peat. 

 

C grade also had a strong win 2 to 1. They will finish 2^nd this year to a strong Mangrove Mountain team. C grade were consistent all year and could have finished a bit closer with a bit more luck.

 

A Grade also had a very good year and will finish third to strong Toukley and Shelly Beach teams. This is a very good result for our team and I believe that they will be a force to contend with next year.

 

Our Juniors have also done us proud and will complete their matches shortly and Richard Brien will provide us with a summary of their year.

 

Our strong results have left us well in front to win the Sterland Shield. Everglades has two matches in hand but need to win all three grades in both matches to tie. This a fantastic result for Gosford.

 

Thanks to all those that have played this year and also to the club and Pro shop staff for their assistance. Thanks to Graham Chee who has assisted throughout the year and to Richard who does a great job with the juniors.
