The Gosford Holden Scramble was held on Saturday August 20. Eighteen teams comprising 72 players teed off at day break (about 6.45am). The event was keenly contested with a count back deciding the winners. Congratulations to Matt and Dan Snelson, Graeme Wright and Nathan Walbanche who will represent us at Kooindah Waters in the District final in the coming weeks. Our Professional Scott Cubis will join the team at Kooindah and hopefully they will progress to the state final to be held in October at Bonville CC. The new rule introduced this year which requires all teams to have at least two Gosford Golf Club members was well received, and should encourage other members to play in this event in the coming years.
Two rounds of the Mixed Team Series have now been completed with the third to be played on September 25. The winning team for August was Col and Lauren Matterson & Duncan and Rosalie Dyer. The winning individual scores were David Small (38 points) and Lauren Matterson (36 points on count back)). Congratulations and well played everyone.
The August greens renovation have now been completed. A little inconvenience now will ensure our greens remain in good condition throughout the coming summer. Congratulations to our greens staff who have presented our course in excellent condition over such a long period of time.
