Inevitably as we move towards the festive season one club event tumbles into another especially as we look to finalise events prior to the course renovation programme.
This weekend looms as another busy two days around Shirley. On Saturday we host the Norton Francis Cup and the Shirley Markers Cup where we invite the country clubs to play in a fourball par teams event - plus, minus, half - format with recognition to those how finish at the head of the field and at the tail.
We have arranged for a shotgun start at 12.30pm and the entry sheet listing the Clubs is in the pro shop. For those who do not wish to participate there will be a separate shotgun start for members at 8.00am.
On Sunday the Shirley Links Golf Shop Shootout final takes place starting with 19 teeing off at 10.00am. It is likely we will be out on the course for over six hours so if you want to watch the final few holes (which are relatively quick) arrive out about early to mid afternoon. The field has been posted (check the website) and a book will operate.
Note that Tony Park as the top qualifier is the only single figure handicapper who made the cut!! Overall the breakdown is 1 Senior, 10 Intermediates and 8 Juniors who will win is any ones guess!! I wonder if we should run a sweep as to who is most likely to go out at the first??
The weekend will see fewer 'lawyers' on the Shirley fairways as they depart for the annual Devils Own tournament in Methven we wish our members all the best for the weekend both golfing and socially.
In the interim good golfing and I will see you at Shirley if not before.
