2023: Indiv. Stableford (12.4.)


 

Venue:  Bonalba Golf & Spa

 

This Wednesday we played an Individual Stableford competition which qualified for all Society competitions and handicap adjustments.

 

We had 25 members and 3 guest competing.  The top result in both divisions were excellent. Special Congratulations to the first five places who scored net par and better.  A special mention goes to Jan Boultbee in Division 1, who has been in top form for a while now and her handicap keeps coming down.  In Division 2, Lief Heyens is starting to make her mark and is well on the way for her handicap to be cut.

 

The prize for the best guest went with 38 points to Derek Cruickshank, who, together with his wife Karen, are going to join our Society.  

 

We are also welcoming Ria Janzing as a new member of our Society.

 

NOTE:  We will be finalising our Away Trip on 29 May to Valle de Este very shortly.  So this is your last chance to join!

 

The summary of today’s competition is as follows:

Nearest the pin:

Hole 4            Doris Shearman-Earp

Hole 8            Eddy Fagg

Hole 11          Michael Davison

Hole 14          Helmut Treiber

 

There were 2 twos today, from Trish Kelleher on hole 11 and from Robert Heyens on hole 14.  

They are now not being awarded automatically a golf ball.  Instead, Bob Crow, who previously sponsored the birdies, has agreed that this prize will be used for random prizes, varied each week.
