There are few certainties in life, but a trophy awarded on the first Saturday of each month is one of those.

Stroke on Medal Day is a hard ask shown by February’s results. Only five members played to par, and deservedly all receive championship points.

Congratulation to Mo Sabih(77) carding his personal best score.

Ball hole won by Brendon Mitchell, and we can all return for another crack at the cash.

This weeks round saw the return of Rod Grant after a layoff due to knee surgery. And what a welcome we were party to from Rod. After months on the sidelines practicing his short game, patiently waiting for full swing movement, Rod came back with a force! Carding 44 Stableford points. Rod blitzed the field, leaving three members in a tie for second with 39 points. Welcome back Rod, and enjoy the new handicap.

Mo Sabih takes a new ball this week for knocking one close, and on a roll, Rod took the cash.

Our first Par competition for 2012 saw the format become members most successful for the season. There were 11 members who played to par or better, 8 of them seniors!

With an amazing +6 Harry Boughen must have confidently strutted into the club house, in the end only just holding out to Tony Mifsud(+5), Both 3 holes ahead of the field.

Money one week, ball the next. Good shooting Chris Priems. Money hole went to kaZim Akdag.

Great conditions, even better scoring. None better than Oliver Grossl, and Andrew Blight, both carding very tidy 40 Stableford points to be equal winners.

The new course indexes had their first test this week, with the main differences appearing on the back nine. Scoring late in a round thus proving difficult for the lower handicapped.

Continuing the trend 8 of our top 10 this week were seniors, and all played to par or better. Great scoring gents.

Ball Hole this week was won by Brendon Mitchell, while the cash heads of to Chris Priems.
