Hi All
Thanks to all those who turned up today with the risk of inclement weather hanging over us however apart from one or two holes of rain midway through the round it was a lovely day.
Thanks also to those that let me know this morning they were not coming which makes it easier for arranging the draw etc. Black mark against the ones who did not communicate.
The good news is we had 15 CT members play (2 of who played under the RSA banner) and we were able to comfortably defeat the RSA team who only managed 7 players. Another trophy for the cabinet!
Dylanl Fifita was the star of the show with 44 points and a net 63 followed by Craig with 41 and David Simanu with 38. Well done Dylan a great round especially with the rough being such a test at the moment.
Thanks again to TLC Insurance for their generous sponsorship of our qualifying rounds with $60 going to the winner, $30 to second and $10 for third. There are 7 opportunities remaining to on the podium with the next round being on 28 May at Mount Golf Club (Mount RSA) at 12 noon. I hope the weather plays its part and you can all make it.
We are in the process of planning the trip to Wanganui for the nationals and accommodation has been sorted and the intention is to play Rangatira Golf Course on the way down on the Saturday and Taihape on the way home. This is for those that want to of course and is not compulsory. I will have to cantact these clubs to see if they have carts available for those needing them. It is still early days and the transport arrangements will need to be confirmed but we will be taking the van and will need a car or two as well but details will follow with the passage of time.
We now have 13 players who have played 4 rounds (or more) and the rankings after today’s round are as follows
Dylan Fifita 270
David Simanu 277
Tim Reehal 281
Peter Harrall 281
Cherry Reehal 285
Murray Warner 288
Craig Wilson 290
Graham Howard 291
Fred August 292
Bob Tree 296
Keith Penny 297
Peter Jones 316
Graham Whittenham 328
Another 5 players have played 3 rounds and a further 3 with 2 rounds counting and 2 with 1 counting round.
Hope everyone has a great May and don’t forget Mothers Day and see you all on the 28th.
Cheers
