What's Happening Week of 30 August.........

A number of our club matchplay competitions have a timeline expiring on Sunday of this week. The Campbell Cup first round matches are to be completed as is the fourth round of the Page Trophy - please check the draw so that you are not in default!!

Getting to the business end of the top dog competition interest now focuses on the semi finals also due by Sunday. Dennis Maguire and Glenn Keen take on the Sanders brothers John and Kim in what will no doubt be a hard fought encounter with where the shots fall perhaps being crucial. Meanwhile Struan Cain & Shane Gloury are pitted against the pairing of Mark Dunn and Mark Fiebig although Mark Dunn may well be playing on his own.

For us lesser mortals Round 13 of the Shirley Links Shootout beckons with a Stableford three grades on the side - to qualify it looks like you will need 77 points - I feel a 40 coming on (Yeah right!!)??

Sunday 5 September is not only Father's day but also Fathers & Sons and Mothers & Daughters Golf Day at the Christchurch Golf Club! Competition of the day is Four-ball Best Ball Stableford from No.1 Tee commencing 12 noon.

Matches include: Fathers & Sons Cup (one of the pairing to be a member), Mothers & Daughters Bowl (any member either mother, daughter, daughter-in-law or grand daughter may play with a mother, daughter, daughter-in-law or grand mother/daughter who is not a member). Other Pairings are Father & Daughter, Mother & Son etc and non-handicappers.

The Entry Fee: $20 per pair includes a light meal after golf. What a great way to spend Fathers Day - put your name down at the pro-shop as soon as possible!!

In the interim good golfing and I will see you at Shirley if not before!
