What's on this weekend at the club 7.8.2020?
Bryan Burt - Ciub scribe • August 6, 2020
Coronation Cup,
Results from last weekend, Pongaroa 1st with 17.5 wins, Dannevirke 2nd 14.5 wins, Cape Turnagain 3rd 4 wins. Pongaroa once again go through to the finals weekend which I believe Dannevirke will be hosting. A great effort by our team, but again Pongaroa get us every time. Special thanks to Mike Matthews for the numerous hours he spent at the Club over the weekend, running the competitions, arranging the catering, and generally being everywhere all the time. His match committee also did a great job, with many budding chefs trying our their skills. Our guests definitely did not leave our Club hungry. Kearane, and AG, the course was in magnificent condition, thanks for your effort. To all our members who came out to support the team or lend a hand in any way, thanks for your contribution. Our club over the past few years has really stood up and our hospitality now matches that of our country clubs. Great effort one and all.
Saturday 8th August; Sattrup & Brannigan Round 2 Matches
Presidents Cup, matches to be continued please
11am Card draw
Saturday 15th August; Lui Paewai Trophy. (Best individual stableford) One of our most sort after trophies. Come along one and all and see if you can get you name inscribed on this wonderful trophy.
Saturday 5th September; (Preliminary Notice) Kitt Kerr Hape Simpson Foursomes;
For our newer members, I include an explanation of play. " Kitt, Kerr Hape Simpson Foursomes; 18 hole foursomes. Two players (A & B) make up a foursome. Player A tees off number one, players B plays the second shot, player A the third etc until the ball is in the hole. Score equals total number of shots taken. Hole 2 player B tees off, player A plays the second shot etc etc. The Foursomes handicap is Player A + B handicaps added and divided by two. Your nett being the total gross minus combined handicap = nett. After 18 holes the best nett (all foursomes) wins the Kitt Cup, 2nd wins the Kerr Cup, 3rd nett wins the Hape Cup and 4th nett wins the Simpson Tray."
Make up your own foursome, or leave you name with the match committee and they will pair players up.
After a full on weekend last week, this week will be a little less frantic, and more relaxed. Come on out Saturday and join in our club day.
Good Golfing
