Welcome to the June Captain’s Report.
Home Timber & Hardware Monthly Medal
Well done to Damon Whaley for winning June’s Monthly Medal. Damon recently finished Runner Up in the Junior Club Championships and on Saturday shot his best score to finish with a nett 68, winning the medal on a count back. Congratulations to Damon and we look forward to watch him progress over time.
Presentation Night
Presentation Night is only a few weeks away. For those still wanting tickets, they are still available by calling the club or seeing Randall. This night is sure to be great and one not to be missed. Feel free to bring friends and partners along as well.
Stroud Trophy
The Stroud Trophy, named in honour of life members Jack & Von Stroud, starts this week. This is a 3-week event, with the first 2 weeks as qualification for the 3rd weeks Final. The qualification events are a 2 player Stableford Aggregate, with the top 2 teams then playing a 4BBB Match Play Final. Player’s handicaps for this event will remain the same as the first qualification round. Rounds will be handicapped as normal.
Pro Pin
Starting this Saturday, the Pro Pin will now rotate between holes 5, 10 & 14. It will still cost $1 and all entry money will be paid into the winners prize account. This has been done to give more opportunity for players to win the prize.
Drouin Premier League
The Autumn edition of the Premier League has now been run and won. The Final was played last Saturday and saw Custard Arms up against The Broken Heads. The Broken Heads went into the day with 5 of their 6 players playing, while Custard Arms had 4 of their 6. Dave Cavanagh got The Broken Heads into the lead early with 35 points, while Mick Wardle was the 2nd best score with 26, leaving them with 61 points. Custard Arms had 2 players go out in the morning, however they couldn’t match The Broken Heads score. It was left up to Tony Piner And Danny Gorman to save the day for the undefeated Custard Arms. It came down to the last putt with Tony Piner scoring 31 points, Danny Gorman matching him also with 31 points, leaving Custard Arms victorious with 62 points. Congratulations to the winning team of Tony Piner, John Piner, Frank Clebney, Danny Gorman, Phil Adams and Paul Barratt. Also a huge thank you to all teams and participants. I couldn’t have asked for a better response to this event. This event will run again this year, starting in October.
Drouin Family Hotel Challenge
Craig Stevens still holds onto his lead at the top with a good finish on Saturday. The next 3 places are close with 26 points separating Rhys Rata, Paul Barratt and Damon Whaley. Full results are displayed on the notice board.
Course Record Board
Thanks to Dave Cavanagh who has updated the course record board. Next time you are in the clubhouse, please check out this board which is located above the notice board.
Kings Birthday Competition
A reminder that a competition runs on all Public Holidays. These competitions are Stableford Medley’s, which means both genders are included in the one competition. The next public holiday comp is this Monday for the King’s Birthday.
I’ll leave you with a quote from 9 time Major Champion Gary Player.
“A good golfer has the determination to win and the patience to wait for breaks.:”
