On the first competition day with no clubhouse the players enjoyed the temporary outdoor setting whilst reflecting on their good shots.

Trevor Steer thought he had 37 points but closer scrutiny showed he had one better than that.  His 38 points was the best score of the day and thus the $50 club credit winner.

A grade was won by Geoff McDonald (35 points) beating several other A grade players on a countback.

Peter Horman was the hero of C grade with a very tidy 36 points.

Geoff Maher was the hard luck story of the day with his impressive 37 points earning him a solitary golf ball

Division 1 lost 5/2 today meaning they face a must-win match in Round 6 to make this year’s final. The team was on the wrong of 4 matches that were decided on the 18th hole. Dead stiff.

Division 3 lost 4/3 against their likely final opponents Lang Lang. A solid showing in Round 6 should see them through to the final. Newcomer Dean Kellett won his first pennant match for Leongatha.

Division 5 extended their unbeaten run to 5 matches thanks to an extraordinary win by stalwart Andy Bassett on the 22nd hole. Putting for a half on the 19th Andy’s ball sat stubbornly on the edge of the hole. As he stepped forward to congratulate his opponent a gust of wind blew it in. A curly putt on the 20th rolled backwards for a half. Bang bang nailed the 22nd hole to bring the team home.

Three great results for our three pennant teams today.

Division 1 got their season rolling with a 4 matches to 3 win against ladder leaders  Lang Lang.  In an exciting finale to the day’s battle Leroy Sharrock went down the 19^th hole with the teams locked at 3 matches all.  Nursing a crook back but still cool as a cucumber Leroy made a par to remember on the first to give Leongatha victory a red hot chance to make the season final.  A special call out to new member Dean Kellett pulled on the Leongatha shirt for the first time.  Welcome aboard Dean.

Division 3 held their spot on top of the ladder with an exciting 4/3 victory over the strong Woorayl team.  Gordon Morrison played his first match in many years and bolted home with an impressive 7/6 win.  Garry Rotteveel and Chris Indian were unlucky to lose on the 20^th and 19^th holes respectively so, all in all, it was a very strong performance by the team.

Division 5 made it 4 wins after 4 rounds with a 4/3 win.  With two rounds still to go the Division 5 team have now booked a place in this year’s final.  Tim McCarthy won a tight match on the 18^th and is now the only player from all three teams to have won his match every week.  Andy Bassett was solid when the pressure was on to also secure victory on the 18^th whilst the Blencowes both starred with Scott winning 7/5 and Ian coming back to the clubhouse after 15 holes with a convincing 4/3 win.
