Sunday Golf
It has been a busy couple of weeks for golf away from Guyra. A couple of weekends ago a group of Guyra players travelled to Bundarra for the Bundarra Open.
Although no teams were successful, a great day was had by all. It is always good to support the Bundarra club who have always turned up in numbers for our major days.
Last weekend three teams travelled to Gunnedah for the second qualifying round of the Keno challenge. One mixed, one men’s and one ladies team competed and although all teams were competitive no teams progressed to the next round.
Also the 1st round of Matchplay is finally completed and we would ask all players in the 2nd round to have their games completed by the 30th of November.
We are still waiting to hear from Armidale about our next round of the Shire Cup.
This weekend will be a 4bbb Stableford. And on Sunday 23rd grab a partner for the Brian Lennon Memorial 2 man Ambrose. This is always a great day so men, women and children come along with a partner for a great day of golf.
HAPPY GOLFING
