Northlakes (SHIELD Game) AUG 13th 2017

A field of 13 players for our yearly special event – The shield game.

Glorious weather greeted us (where else but Queensland) on a very well-presented course.

Except for one team (the 3-person group) the field was pretty well compacted, but alas the lead group was so far ahead the rest of us were always playing for second place.

The food afterwards was (the club sandwich at least) enormous and very tasty, I hope everyone else was suitably satisfied?

This may be the last of this special game set up as alas the costs are getting a little high for our small club to handle, we will be open to all suggestions for a different game & perhaps a meal elsewhere, but if you do come up with something we would be asking for a little more input in the organising of the option if taken up. We can discuss this throughout the course of the next few games.

Now for the results:

NTP on the 7^th – Peter Mather

NTP on the 14^th – Ken Greedy

Mens Long drive 9th – Paul Wellington

Ladies Long drive 9th – Jane Mather

1^st place on 58.8 nett – Peter Johnson, Bryan Kendall, Paul Wellington.

2^nd place on 70.75 – Jane and Peter Mather  

3^rd place on 72.66 – Mike O’Neill, Brad Parker

Big thanks to everyone for taking the time & taking the drive to make the shield game as enjoyable as it was.

Next game is at Wynnum on the 10^th of September at 7.04am tee off.

Hope to see many of you there. (bring a friend)

Regards.

Paul (Captain)
