Marina Hills – 27th February 2018

Hi to all around the Globe,

Today we had 26 players take part in s stableford event, the greens were good the fairways hard and fast with lots of extra roll.  There were a lot of great scores today by so many of the players the extra length on the fairways appears to be making the course play a little easier.

In both A and B grade the winners both scored a big 46 stableford points, Royal Johnny Cummins taking out the A Grade with a big win by 8 shots whilst Mike Evarts won the B  grade.  Runners up in A Grade Dave Walters 38 points and Steve Turner 44 points.

Marina Hills – 6th February 2018

Hi to all around the Globe,

Apologies for the late upload of the newsletter I had a few technical difficulties but have managed to overcome the problems.

We had 36 players attend the February Monthly Medal event what a great turn out, the conditions when great for playing golf overcast skies and a cool breeze to add a bit of a challenge to the Marina layout.

There were some amazing scores out there as well with Jack Graham carting a 84 nett to win the best Gross score and also the best Nett with a 66, again this week Johnny Cummins name is in the winners circle winning the runner up with 72 nett.

In the B grade two long serving members clashed with Eric Brown winning with a Nett 62 followed closely by John Sourk 63 nett, they are reall great scores well done to all the winners.

Next week we will be playing a stableford event next Tuesday is the Bill Goodell Memorial Day held in honour of Bill we will have some extra prizes and also some food at Honey Kos’.
