Marine Hills – 27th March 2018

Hi to all around the Globe,

Today we had 25 players turn out for our stableford event, new and returning players Ben Madden, Peter & Lee Duncan and Brendan Anderson welcome back everyone and to the new players welcome to our club you are always most welcome.

The course is still dry and the greens are sandy and slow some well timed rain would be great to smooth everything out.  The winning score were great this week so obviously the continual chanting from the church on hole number 4 didn’t put any of the winning players off.  Yes it’s holy week and the 24/7 chanting singing is in full swing.

Well the Lockhard boys showed up to have a hit, glad to see you guys out here on the course. The course is still hard and the greens are just average a bit of sand has been thrown around to try to level out some of the bumps.

Marina Hills – 13th March 2018

Hi to all around the Globe,

We had another great roll up today with 31 players turning up at Marina to have a hit, we would also like to thank Roger Simpson, Alan Ouellette and John Sourk for chipping in this morning to help our club transport all of the players from Orchid Inn.  There were 16 players at Orchid, needing transport so once again thanks for helping.

We wish to send our condolences to Maribel and Terry Chapman for the passing of Maribel’s father.

Lockhard boys are in town however both failed to appear this morning rumor has it that Steve was extending some brotherly love to Dale and on shaking hands dislocated a bone in Dale’s hand, hope to see you guys soon.

The course is playing ok at the moment, they have heaveily sanded a couple of the greens trying to smooth out some of those bumps, let hope we get some rain to help them along.

Marina Hills – 6th March 2018

Hi to all around the Globe,

Well already we are into March this year the time seems to be flying and today 38 players took part in our March Monthly Medal.  38 players is one of the biggest fields we have had for several years so thank you to all of you who are supporting our club and coming out to play social golf.

The course is very dry at the moment with the fairways being dry and hard with lots of roll and the greens have gone off and are bumpy at the moment however it the same for everyone so it really the players who are able to play to the conditions who will come out on top.

All the players would like to give our best to Paul Fisher who is returning to England thank you Paul for supporting our club we have all enjoyed your company and we wish you all the best for your health and especially handling the beautiful english weather.
