Championships Round 2, Please confirm matches with starter
Clubhouse. As we are a bar, we can now open up again. I beleive at this stage the House Committee are selling stubbies and Quarts only, no draught beers (TBC)
There will be rules so please abide by them
Mikes request; Competition cash is becoming a real problem, with the cash machines in town dishing out $50 notes. Please we just don't have change for everyone, so if you can save a $10 note during the week for Saturday, it will make life so much easier for the Match Committee. Thanks
Golf HB Association; As mentioned previously, the Zoom meeting agreed that both Coronation and Greenwood Cups would be played this year subject to gathering size being lifted.
If we are going ahead, the Soutnern Zone match has been penciled in for Saturday / Sunday August 1st and 2nd (at Dannevirke) This will replace our 27hole Tournament, as the Rosebowl is not happening this year, as both Pongaroa and Cape Turnagain have missed their dates. The finals will be held November 14-15, the same weekend as the Greenwood final weekend.
Great to see golf up a going again. Under foot conditions are still excellent, so lets keep the Championships matches flowing, so we finish on time on June 20th. Good luck with your matches.
