The windy weather conditions played havoc with some players, but we could not blame the golf course as it was in perfect condition. A big thank you goes to our volunteer workers.

This year our Championship was sponsored by Waters Brothers Concreting and we thank Scott and Brett for sponsoring this important event.

The club champion for 2013 is Trudy Payne, congratulations Trudy. Trudy had to fight for the win as she had Lesley Farquharson challenging over the whole four days. Lesley only lost by two shots, well done Lesley.

Our final important event for 2013 is the Lillian Hodgkinson Shield which will be played on Sunday November 10. The event is a four-ball-best-ball and there is a sheet on the board for players wishing to play. We urge players to organise a partner and support this great event, hit off time will be from 9.30am.
