18/04/2026 - Woolooware Golf Course - 2 Ball Ambrose - 6:09am

32 players teed off on a cool morning (11 degrees) with clear skies and a slight breeze. The weather forecast was for a maximum temperature of 21 degrees during the day and the forecast was 100% correct. 

The fairways were generally in good condition with a thick covering of grass but still patchy on some fairways.

The Greens had a good thick cover of grass that made putting all the more challenging.

There was no Guzzlers Cup winner as we played 2 Ball Ambrose:

04/04/2026 - Rosnay (Auburn) Golf Course - Yellow Ball Team Event - Individual Stableford - 7:36am

HAPPY EASTER

22 players teed off on an overcast morning with rain falling in some parts of Sydney but no rain at Rosnay until late morning when a light drizzle impacted our last few holes. It was hardly worthwhile getting the umbrellas out.

The grass cover in the 'rough' off the fairways was a thick causing players a bit of difficulty striking the green from the rough. 

There was a 300mm preferred lie on fairways which were in need of a good mow.

The greens had a thick grass cover making putting difficult.

The Bunkers were IN PLAY.

GUZZLER CUP was won by Frank Fuller with 36 points

28/03/2026 - Boomerang Golf Course - Matchplay Semi-Final - Individual Stableford - 7:00am

24 players teed off on a cool, windy and overcast morning but the sun and warmth arrived by the 10th hole.

All bunkers were in play but some had water in them requiring players to drop their ball in the bunker at a point no closer to the hole but from a drier lie.

The fairways were in very good condition although some fairways had pooled water in places.

The greens were well covered with grass that had been cut on Wednesday so putts needed to be firm to get to the hole.

Many thanks to Graham Clarke and Adrian Adelerhof for making multiple trips to carry players and clubs between the Peninsula Motel and the wharf. This saved a lot of money due to the cost of parking at and near the wharf.

The Hawks Nest courtesy bus transported our playing group to and from the golf course.

07/02/2026 - Woolooware Golf Course - Individual Stableford - 6:12am

 32 players teed off on a warm morning with clear skies and a slight breeze. The weather forecast was for temperatures in the mid 30s by mid to late morning and the forecast was 100% correct. 

The fairways were generally in good condition with a thick covering of grass but still patchy on some fairways.

The Greens had a good thick cover of grass that made putting all the more difficult to gauge the best speed due to the moisture from rain and dew overnight.

The Guzzlers Cup was won by Matt Saunders

2nd Place:                        Peter Jaeger (39 points)

The greens had a thick grass cover making putting difficult.

The Bunkers were IN PLAY.

32 players teed off on a warm morning with clear skies and a slight breeze. The weather forecast was for temperatures in excess of 40 degrees by mid to late morning and the forecast was 100% correct. The players in the last group only just managed to finish their round due to fatigue from the heat and dehydration.

The fairways were generally in good condition with a thick covering of grass but still patchy on some fairways.

All bunkers were in play.

The fairways were in very good condition.

The greens were well covered with grass that had been cut on Wednesday so putts needed to be firm to get to the hole.
