When will this heat end? Well done to those of you who have braved the weather over the last month and got out on the course for a round. Just in case you were wondering if I had \u2018done a runner\u2019 before the season even started, I have been in Tasmania for a couple of weeks doing a lap of the island in a motorhome and exploring my convict roots. Turns out the convict\u2019s free settler father-in-law was the very \u2018colourful character\u2019! Fortunately, the family is now on the straight and narrow. The weather was sooo much cooler there! That\u2019s enough of my holiday and my dodgy relatives, now down to golf business.<\/p>\n
Women\u2019s Season Opener Note:<\/strong> For those who have mobility issues, that may prevent you from playing this competition due to the possibility of a long walk to and from a distant tee start, please contact me directly before bookings open and I will do my best to accommodate you on a tee closer to the clubhouse.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n 2024 Fixtures This year will see for the first time the women\u2019s matchplay championship will being alongside the men\u2019s competition on Saturdays. It will be a fabulous opportunity for the weekend players and the weekday players to get together to contest a Gold Letter event.<\/p>\n That\u2019s all for me for now. See you at the Season Opener.<\/p>\n Take care and be kind.<\/p>\n Anne Ward <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" When will this heat end?

<\/strong>The winter season isn\u2019t too far off with our Women\u2019s Season Opener 12 hole competition scheduled for Thursday 7th<\/sup> March<\/strong>. It will be an 8am shotgun start so we can all finish at a similar time. It\u2019s a great day for the 9 hole and 18 hole fields to play as one and enjoy a lunch afterwards to open the winter season. Why don\u2019t you mix up your playing group and take the opportunity to have a game with someone from the \u2018other\u2019 group that you don\u2019t normally get to play with. If for some reason you can\u2019t play in the morning, come along and join us for lunch. There will be some special prizes and important information from both Sue and I about the upcoming year. I hope you will join your fellow members on this special day.<\/p>\n
<\/strong>The fixtures for the upcoming year have been finalised and getting ready to be published. You can have a sneak preview of the Women\u2019s Fixtures on the locker room noticeboard. A couple of significant changes to note are:<\/p>\n\n
<\/strong>The championship will be held in April this year to avoid clashing with the pennant\u2019s season and to play the course in its peak condition and hopefully without the threat of inclement weather.<\/li>\n
