First of all, a thank you to Robert Heyens, who is standing in as Captain for Tony/Heidi Dewavrin. It is good to hear that Tony’s surgery has been very successful and we look forward to seeing the Dewavrin’s back in Spain very soon.
Today we had 28 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.
The summary of today’s competition is as follows
Nearest the pin:
Hole 4 (ladies) Pascale Leroux
Hole 8 (men) Michael Davison
Hole 11 (men) nobody
Hole 14 (ladies) nobody
There was one two which came from Luc Verhaegen on hole 4.
