Evening all,


We have a busy weekend coming up with Pennants and Pongaroa 27 Hole Strokeplay Tournament, so people moving all around the area.


Saturday 6th April. Round 3 GHB Pennants. (Yes the Saturday round) Three of our six teams are playing the host Club, which is a big ask,

A request from Golf HB and relating to the rules of the above competition. Could all handicap team Captains, please ensure all six team cards are handed in for Handicapping. This rule is for Handicap matchplay only not Championship. Teams who fail to do so will in future have win points deducted for failure to comply. (Don't shoot the messanger)

Cornoation Cup 18th & 19th May This year our Zone play is at Pongaroa. Please advise Mike or any member of the match Committee if you wish to be considered for this team, or indeed if you have played the past couple of years and are unavailable this year, so the selection committee know who they are selecting from


Ladies: Last weeks mystery trip ended up in Martinborough, followed by lunch at Gails sisters then, then a shopping spree in Carterton. Pennatns today but no result as yet.


Shame we have had no rain, the greens need a good shower to move on from the coring,


That's it folk, plenty of golf to be played, so go out and enjoy the game, and best wishes for what ever competition you are playing
