32 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 high 20 degrees

The fairways had a very good grass cover and they had been well mowed and even the rough was in good condition with a reasonable amount of 'run'.

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

Peter Bull played the whole round with the Pink Ball that was awarded to him last week for coming last.

Bully won the Guzzlers Cup 4 weeks ago at Calderwood. He was awarded the Pink Ball 3 weeks ago at Woolooware. He was in the bottom half of the field 2 weeks ago at Gerringong. He was awarded the Pink Ball last week at Woolooware. Does that mean that he will get the Pink Ball at Calderwood next week? We will have to wait and see.

11 February - Woolooware Golf Course - Individual Stableford - 6:10am

25 players teed off on a warm and sunny morning with clear sky. The fairways were mainly dry with a thick covering of grass despite the torrential rain that hit Cronulla on Thursday. The Greens were in very good condition with a thick mat that made putting difficult as only a strong putt would get to the hole. There was still evidence of flooding from the blocked drains on and around the 5th fairway but in the main the course was in very good condition.

The sun came out mid-morning warming things up a lot. It was also very humid. We did not envy the members teeing off after 11am.

The Guzzlers Cup winner was Sam Lee

1st Place:                         Sam Lee (38) on a count back from A.Adelerhof, R.Dixon & J.Huertas

2nd Place:                       Rodney Dixon (38) on a count back from A.Adelerhof & J.Huertas

3rd Place:                        Adrian Adelerhof (38) on a count back from James Huertas

For each subsequent game at Woolooware if a player betters his previous score for each of the 18 holes that new best score will replace the previous one for that hole. After the 8 games the player with the best score card will win the Eclectic Competition.
