Golf clubs are places where records are made, and we have a very impressive Trophy Cabinet in our entrance foyer area where these records are on display for all to see, in addition to the Honour Boards in the main clubroom area. However, one record that you won\u2019t find on display is that of the highest score in a stroke round on any one hole! One of our esteemed Past Presidents, who shall remain nameless, rather sheepishly claimed a new all-time record on the 6th hole with an astonishing 31. Let\u2019s hope this doesn\u2019t discourage him enough to rule him out for next week!<\/p>\n

Club Captain Jan Cogger temporarily forgot her onerous duties to enjoy an excellent round and win A Grade with 71 from a 74 by Jeanette Johnson, and Diane Roede continued her good run by topping B Grade with 72 by a shot from Helen Boyle. The NTP\u2019s were scored by Jeanette Johnson, Helen Powe and Sandy Issell, and the ProPins by Jan Cogger (0-25) and Heather Spry (26-45).
