26/04/2025 - Calderwood Valley Golf Course - Individual Stableford - 7:00am

32 players teed off on a warm morning with overcast skies and a slight breeze that helped to keep the heat and humidity in check. Rain was forecast for early afternoon.

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

The greens were in good condition helping good putters to sink their putts.

Bunkers were GUR (Ground Under Repair, out-of-play) and players were allowed 6 inch preferred lie on fairways.

The Guzzlers Cup was won by Steve O'Toole

19/04/2025 - Woolooware Golf Course - Individual Stableford - 06:10am

 Tim Tillbrook has provided new tape measures to be used on the D&P and NTP holes for measuring the distance from the edge of the hole to the front of the golf ball which is then written on the pin marker attached to the tape measure.

This was the second round of the Eclectic Competition for 2025.

32 players teed off on a clear warm morning with no rain forecast.

The fairways were dry with a thick covering of grass but patchy on some fairways.

The Greens were cored 4 weeks ago and there still sand evident in spots on some greens. That together with a lot of moisture on them, until the sun burned it off, made putting challenging.

The Guzzlers Cup was won by Julian Werrett.

1st Place:                         Julian Werrett (38 points)

2nd Place:                        Darren Welsh (37 points)
