Monday – 5 Hole Social Golf League

November 6, 2017Comments Off on Monday – 5 Hole Social Golf LeagueLatest News

The Club’s newest innovation, 5 hole social golf league, kicked off today with 42 players.  Aiming to attract juniors and newcomers to golf the first night of this event was a great success.

7 year old Beau Elvin was the story of the night scoring 26 for 5 holes giving him the night’s best nett score of 15.  Young Jack Aeschlimann had an impressive 30 off the stick, nett 21.  We have got a couple of keen young boys with very promising golf careers in the making.

The team of Jan Bissett, Marion Chalmers, Alan Briggs and Karen Brigs with nett 60 won the team event.  Marion proving to us all the golf is a game for life.

The individual best nett scores were won by Karen Briggs and Ken McKenzie, with Geoff Trease winning the day for the newcomers.

Cheryl Borg scored her first ever par on the tough 15th to win the prize for the best hole of the night.

Thanks to all who came along and we hope to see you all here again next Monday.
