Floaty is out so we are down to 19 players - with 1 spot still available (the 6th group has been cancelled). JK got in first to grab the spare cart seat (beating both Greg and Aussie).
We have 6 groups and 4 carts reserved with a 09:03 start time (to be confirmed)
This week is Charlie's Founding Fathers day
We currently require 5 groups (for 20 players) and 4 carts
There are 4 playing spots available
In the carts are JoeB/Clive, Andy/Charlie plus Tony, Lindsay and Ged (yet to be paired)
We need a volunteer to balance the carts again this week
We are playing some sort of Novelty event that Charlie will outline
There is one Pairs match planned: Rod/EK v Pete/Brad
The Mug holder for December is Clapper
Group and cart requirements will need to be finalised by Wednesday evening.
Tony will pay upfront for the golf component on Thursday.
The usual "down to play required to pay" rule applies.
29 Nov
20 players turned out at Hamersley for the annual Sandgropers v Barbarians clash, as well as the stableford comp for Baz’ trophies.
Heritage Cup:
With 4 of the 5 groups in the clubhouse the Gropers had an seemingly unassailable 5-3 lead. But then came the triple match group with Barbarians Andy-Aussie-Pete all playing Pig. The rest is history, as Pig lost all 3 games to see the Barbarians over the line 6-5 in a boilover. They are just not used to winning these Sandgropers!
Daily Comp:
Runner up on countback was Aussie on 36pts, after a par blitz on the back 9.
And winning the day on 37 pts was Brad, a fine round Brad.
And two excellent trophies provided by Baz.
Many thanks to Dom-JK-Joe for running a well oiled AGM. A great show.
Till next time,
Pete
