Venue: Bonalba Golf & Spa
Today we had 24 players competing in a 4-ball team game. The format was “Yellow Ball” Stableford. Each team received two yellow balls, one being the spare one, in case the first ball was lost.
The team took it in turn to play the yellow ball which gave the relevant player double Stableford points. If a team lost both yellow balls, they could then not score double points. For each yellow ball returned to the Captain at the end of the game, the team received a further 5 points.
There were also prizes for nearest the pin and birdies on the par 3 holes.
We were pleased to welcome two new members from France, Jean-Jacques Bourrier and Didier Quemper, who had played with us as guests a few times in the past. We hope, they will have many more enjoyable games in our Society.
The summary of today’s competition is as follows
