INTERCLUB / PENNANT RESULTS / GAMES COMING UP
I’m guessing some of you have missed my newsletter since I haven’t had a chance to do one for the past month or so – April just flew by! Anyway I’m going to bring you right up to date with results.
WEEKEND PENNANT – The last 3 outings for our Weekend Pennant team of Colleen Daysh and Bronwyn Smith were very successful. In round 5, at Rangitikei, the team played Rangitikei Gold and scored a 3-0 clean sweep. Then in round 6 here at home and after a week’s delay due to the rain causing a course closure, the team again scored a clean sweep 3-0 this time against the Rangitikei Blue team. The final round (7) was at Palmerston North last Sunday when the team scored a come-from-behind 2½ - ½ win over Castlecliff to finish the season in 2nd place 1½ points behind Feilding.
MONDAY PENNANT - Monday 3rd April, in round 4, the Monday pennant team (Lisa Cotton, Pam Bisset, Deb Henricksen, Lynne Huddleston, Seona Ashton and Deirdre Power) beat Palmerston North1 5½ to 2½. This result was reversed on 17th April in round 5 when our team (Lisa, Pam, Lynne, Pam Huddleston, Steph Tisdall and Margaret Alding) lost 2½ to 5½ to Marton at Feilding.
On 1st May the semi-finals were played at Manawatu where our team of Lisa, Deb, Lynne, Steph, Deirdre and Margaret blitzed their Castlecliff opposition 7½ to ½.
The finals were played at Marton on 15th May and our team (Lisa, Pam, Lynne, Paula McCool, Seona and Margaret) beat Feilding1 5 – 3 to finish the season in 5th place. Another interclub season put to bed.
MARQUIS SHIELD - Marquis Shield delegates generously agreed to move their round of 30th April from Pahiatua to Masterton to accommodate Manawatu-Wanganui’s C, D and ladies Weekend Pennants after the course was closed the previous weekend.
Unfortunately, our team did not get their reward, losing 13½ to 4½ to Martinborough. Our team was Danny Pierey and Steve McHardy, Kieran Pierey and Lee Thomson (Senior), Nigel Pearson and Jason Smith, Peter Timmins and Logan McHardy (Intermediate), Fred Potini and Lionel Toheriri, Mark Thomson and Grant Squires (Junior). Round 4 is being played here at home this Sunday 21st May against Carterton, tee off from 11am. The team is – Senior - Danny Pierey and Nigel Pearson, Kieran Pierey and Steve McHardy, Intermediate – Jason and Jamie Smith, Shaun Smith and Peter Timmins, Junior – Fred Potini and Lionel Toheriri, Tony Kerins and Mark Thomson. Good luck guys.
While the team is languishing down the table this year, they have a chance in the Intermediate Trophy where they are currently holding 2nd place.

CARD MACHINE KIOSK You will have noticed the card machine that has been installed at the clubhouse Hopefully this will be easy enough for you all to use, firstly getting your card (press GET A SCORE CARD) filling it out properly by marking the actual score with an X on the left hand side of the card against each hole when marking your partner’s card. This is then read by the scanner after play, so you need to check it is correct. Press SCAN/ENTER CARD and put card through the scanner – you may have to key the scores in hole by hole in some circumstances. Any queries, please contact Fred Potini on 027 612 1269. |
