A field of 24 (22 men & 2 ladies) contested the J Ellis & Co Trophy on Sunday 12th November, which was won by Ryan Wakelin with 43pts. Well done, Ryan.
Runner Up was Tim McClelland on a countback from Steve Harris, both with 37pts.
NTP 9th/18th was Steve Harris who got inside Andy Varcoe on the 9th.
Birdies were rarer this week, after last week’s Birdie Blitz, with Jason Walters with 2 (5th & 10th) & Andy Varcoe (12th).
Welcome to the 3 visitors who played in the competition. Mike Matthewson (Thirlestan, Tas), Janine Coffee (Jameroo, NSW) & Mick Morros (Strathalbyn). Good to see Mick back at Beachport.
Tim had an interesting 18th hole. Teed off to bounce the ball off the roof of Spinner’s cart coming down the 8th fairway to finish right of the 7th green.
2nd shot off the clubrooms to the 18th green, 2 putts. Easy bogie.
Thursday saw a field of 15 contest the first Twilight competition for the season, with 20 meals served. Put Twilight Golf on your calendar.
The Milton Hall Trophy (Beachport v Robe) is to be contested next Sunday at Robe. This competition is for both ladies & men, with the result based on the average of the top 10 cards. So the more players we get to represent the club, the better our chance at winning “bragging rights” over our close neighbour. Tee off is around 10.30am.
