10 December 2022 - Calderwood Valley Golf Course - Individual Stableford - 7:00am

28 players enjoyed a beautiful day for golf at the picturesque Calderwood Valley golf course with no rain, little wind and sunny skies. Temperature was in the low 20 degrees

The fairways had a very good grass cover and they had been well mown and even the rough was in good condition with a reasonable amount of 'run' considering the damp conditions that have existed for the past 3-4 months in the Illawarra Region of NSW.

The greens were also in excellent condition resulting in a good test for our putting.

26 November 2022 - Rosnay (Auburn) Golf Course - Individual Stableford - 06:05am

 Only 9 starters turned up to experience a beautiful warm sunny day that was perfect for golf.

The greens were in perfect condition with a tick cover of grass that was good to putt on.

The fairways also had a thick cover of grass with only a few spots that were still recovering from recent heavy rains in Sydney. There were no puddles or muddy patches on the course.

Brilliant day for golf.

Due to the low numbers there were no major prizes.
