On Sunday 26 September the team travelled to Clearwater for two rounds of Woodward Cup. The course was in good order although it was a pity that the greens had undergone coring in the recent past.
The morning round saw an excellent win over Templeton 5.5 to 0.5 with the whole team showing strength and commitment especially as three games went down 18. A special thanks to Karl Kitchingham who answered an SOS and secured a great win over an old rival Peter Fox.
The afternoon round saw a titanic struggle against Coringa where fortunes ebbed and flowed for the whole match. Standing on 18 tee we were tied 2 games each with the top pairing both all square - a chance to win, lose, or half. I think it would be a fair summation to say both Tom Turner and Jordan Bakermans chopped it up the last but in the end good recovery shots ensured a half on both games and the match. A very well deserved point when it looked all maybe lost.
This Sunday we make an unscheduled stop at Avondale after Waitikiri became unavailable due to a double coring. In the morning round we play Waimariri Beach and in the afternoon Waitikiri so it is another big day! Currently having had the bye we are in third place with Waitikiri in second and Russley leading the field. A solid effort will do much towards our push for a place on finals day! Good luck to the team any support would be greatly appreciated!!
