Wauchope Men's Vets weekly update 06.09


Wauchope Men’s Veteran Golfers

To all those Fathers out there “Happy Father’s Day”

Looking at the sheet for Tuesday 8th September there is one vacancy, it is a 2 Man Ambrose, 8:00am Shotgun Start, followed by the AGM and lunch. Please be there early to pick up your card. We will do the same as usual, pay in Pro Shop, pick your card up outside Pro Shop. The AGM will be conducted in the Auditorium downstairs, please sign the register on arrival. Those members who have not received their 2015-16 membership card, would you see me, I should have one for you.

I need to apologise to a group of our members who sponsor an event. It seems we/I always seem to leave one off when announcing the sponsorship and with tradition I omitted one last week. The Sponsors for Tuesday 6th October are Ian Hackney, Jim Bransdon, Keith Martin, John Schubert. I thank them very much for their sponsorship.

I have the hit off times for our players who are going to Frederickton on Wednesday 16th September, I will email them to the players who are going up. I will say more about Freddo next week. It is on the Noticeboard at the Club.

The week of Golf concluded on Friday, it was extremely successful. This is a good money spinner for the Country Club, as most contestants are travelling in caravans and like to spend a bit of money in the Club. I would like to say the meal we enjoyed on Friday night at Week of Golf Presentation was superb, the Bistro staff went to a lot of trouble to ensure the night was a success, thank you Margaret and staff. Thank you also to John Uncle, Peter Abell, Dennis Hughes, Dawn Abell, Jan Grant and all the members who unselfishly donated their time to the many tasks it takes to make the day successful.

And thank you to Clark who was the major sponsor of the event, there were “On Course” vouchers everywhere and stayed open so the visitors could use the vouchers after the presentation.

Coming up :

Tuesday 8th September AGM and 2 man Ambrose, 8:00am Shotgun start.

Wednesday 16th September, Bill Medley Shield at Frederickton. I have submitted 18 names as our entry. Dennis will be contemplating selections over the next few weeks, it would be good to nudge ahead in the Shield at Fredo, going into the final BMS game at South West Rocks on Friday 16th October.

Tuesday 29th September, Foursomes Championships, Sponsored by Thompson’s Home Hardware, Wauchope. Eligibility applies to this event.

Tuesday 6th October, the 2nd leg of the Wal Sneddon Shield at Wauchope, This will be a 8:30am Shotgun start, we have about 50 points to make up on the top 20 scores from each club. This day is sponsored by Ian Hackney, Jim Bransdon and Keith Martin, John Schubert

Friday 16th October, BMS at South West Rocks

Tuesday 27th October is a 7:30 am Shotgun start, Best 2 of 4 Stableford, this is because the Australian Left Handed Golfers Championship has a 12:30pm Shotgun start that day. The plan is we will get out of their way early, for such  prestigious event.
