After a very impressive 75 today Chris Leaver has a 5 shot lead after two rounds of the Club Championship. With a two round total of 157, Chris lead Mick McGrath on 162, with Matt Bowey, Rod Mackenzie, Malcolm Gin and Marcus Luscombe also within striking distance.. Next week’s final round is shaping up as a down-to-the-wire affair.
B grade is also looking like a tight contest with Doug Clemann holding a narrow lead over last year’s winner Kevin Castwood, with Andrew Smith, Peter Walsh, Ian Murchie and Alan Kuhne not too far behind.
C grade leader is Frank Gill. Ron Findlay is only two shots behind. Andy Bassett, John Eabry, Bert Borg and Nick Shaw round out the top 6 and are only one solid round away from glory.
D grade sees Ted Rudge holding onto to his round 1 lead with Ian Debenham, Fred Debono, Ted Bruinewood, Colin Moyle ans Don ald Smith rounding out the top 6.
All of these players are in the seeded draw for next week’s final round. Good luck to all.

Round 2 of the Saturday Championships for women was played today, with a small field of only 6 players, which is very disappointing for the sponsors. The Saturday Championships are played over 3 rounds with the best 2 stableford scores counting. Today’s winner was Toni West (8) with a score of 30 points. Toni is also leading the Saturday Championships with a two round score of 62 points, followed by both Marg Griffiths and Wendy Parker on 51 points, however anyone can still win, as you only need two scores to count.
A wet and humid day didn’t prevent some good scores being recorded which is an indictment as to how good the Course is recovering from winter.
Brian Wall claimed Best Score of the Day on countback with +2. For a full list of prize winners click here:
It was indeed a historic night for golf in South Gippsland at Woorayl Golf Club last night, Tuesday 17th October. At separate special general meetings of both the South Gippsland women’s and men’s golfing associations, a resolution to amalgamate women’s and men’s golf was unanimously passed. In doing so South Gippsland became the 14th of the 17 golfing districts in Victoria to amalgamate.
At the inaugural meeting of the newly amalgamated body – now known as South Gippsland Golf Incorporated – the following Office Bearers were deemed elected in accord with the new constitution as there was exactly the same number of nominees as positions available. What are the odds of that happening!
I take this opportunity on behalf of all members of LGC, to both congratulate and thank Toni and Bruce for nominating for these positions and accepting their election to them. We wish them well in their important roles.
The above Executive Committee is charged with the responsibility of guiding the direction of and fostering the sport of golf in our region, not the actual running of men’s and women’s golf events such as Pennant. No doubt they will be soon on the lookout for some “troops” to do the hackwork of running golf in this region within operational areas such as Marketing and Publicity, Electronic Media, Match Committees and Game Development. I urge you to consider volunteering to help if you feel you have the talents they require as it is important that we make this amalgamation a success and that we further the game of golf in this region.
As this amalgamation has only just taken place, you can expect little, if any change as to how men’s and women’s golf is run in district in the 2018 calendar year. However, it will be interesting to see just what developments and changes lie further ahead!
My thanks also go to Colleen Touzel for her work on the six-person steering committee that was formed to make this amalgamation happen. Having spent many hours in meetings of this committee with Irene, Lee and Denis, and knowing our “home grown” talent of Toni and Bruce, Colleen and I have every confidence that the new amalgamated association is in good hands.
Peter Waters, President
