No golf was played at Marina Hill today due to the course conditions, 5 players had a social game at Beverley and 7 players turned up at Presentation at Gentlemens.

Pool Comp John Cummins defeated Anthony Cullen there were only 4 pool players that’s how I got to the final.

Wayne Rush Trophy – Beverley Place Golf Club

Wednesday 24th August 2016

Hi to All around the Globe,

Today we played the annual Wayne Rush Trophy  matchplay event between Balibago Social Golf Club (BSGC) and Fairway Ramblers Golf Club (FRGC) who were also joined by the other San Antonio Golfing Group Hackers and Wackers(HWGC).  There were some hard faught matches out on the course I will post a link to the results at the bottom of the page.

The rain held off for the majority of the matches and at the end of all of the matches we had a presentation at the club house, we remember the life of Wayne Rush and the contributations he made whilst he lived here in the Philippines, I know from talking with him last year he would of been proud of the turn out from both clubs.

I would like to thank our Club Captain Warwick for assisting me and organising the tournament and also Scott Paul for organising the players from FRGC and HWGC.DSC02436

Marina Hills 9th August 2016 

Hi to all around the Globe,

Well today we had 21 players which was a bit of a surprise with the wet season arriving we were able to play a couple of holes before the drizzle started and most of the players finished nine holes so we decided to stop after nine holes as the rain was getting heavier.

The greens were good the course was wet the winner of 0 – 18 Hcps this week with 20 points was me and the runner up was Ben Ross with 19pts.

In 19 & Above Mike Powell also scored 20 points and won one shot ahead a Fred Cannova with 19 pts mind you Fred’s handicap has crept out to 21.

Now that the WET Season is here please check the home page of our new website an advisory will be placed on this page if we decide that Marina Hills is to wet we will transfer the game to Beverley Place and advise all of the players on the home page.

Marina Hills 2nd August 2016 Monthly Medal

Hi to all around the Globe,

Well today we had 30 players take part in our Monthly Medal Competition and the course was slow but it looks great with the recent rain. The scores today were very average there were only five players that scored par or better.

I was very surprised at presentation to find out that I won the Monthly Medal with a Nett 71 ahead of runner up Dave Paliwoda with 73.

In 19 & above President Bill played great to score a nett 64 and Runner Up was Scott Paul with 67 it seems that the higher handicappers played the course much better than the 0 – 18.
