Fog disrupted last week’s Scramble, and as you will read from Spencer Cooper’s explanation, there are extremely valid reasons why play was suspended. Your understanding in these circumstances is appreciated.

Reminders:-

A “Pennant Meeting is to be held on Thursday 16th August (straight after golf – around 1pm). Can all those who have played Pennants or who are thinking of playing, please attend this get-together.

There is a ‘Registration Form’ in the Locker Room for those who are considering being part of a team next year – add your name to the list! No obligation.

There have been several matches played recently that have held up the field, and when approached by the Course Marshall, he has been told ‘but we are playing a match’. Please note that playing a match does NOT entitle you to fall behind the pace of play. If you want to ‘go slow’, please book at the END of the field.

Next Tuesday will be Greensome Foursomes – get a partner organised and book yourselves in directly on to the DotGolf website. You score will not count for handicapping.

And on Thursday, Teams Day #2 will be played … a chance to knock the current title holders (Gail Mackenzie, Sophie Feng, Helen Peters and Esther Cowper) off their perch. With Tuesday’s Greensome Foursomes cards not counting for handicap, Teams Day cards will count for handicapping (it will be a variation of stableford).
