Monthly Meeting played at Milnerton on Thursday 03 December 2020

Golf, what an interesting sport. After almost the best average scores per division at Bellville, the wind reared its nasty head at Milnerton and the scores reflected it on the day, but as always a great day out.

In the Captain’s 4-ball I was joined by the Captain of Milnerton GC, Peter Pretorius, as well as Ken Walker and Dave Park-Ross. Well done Ken on all your milestones achieved this year as well as your hole in one. Great to have you back in the fold again Dave and hope your health goes from strength to strength.

We had 113 players in the field. The average score for the day was a paltry 25.3. Congratulations to the Division winners, John Laurie (32 pts off 1), Kilrone Ricketts (33 pts off 12) and Ant Grace (33 pts off 20).

An amazing statistic for the day was that only 3 players got cut and that 72 players gained shots.

It was great to have to have our second formal Prize giving since lockdown which was well attended and the banter between the Sunset Lounge and bar was festive.

Congratulations as well to all our other members who were recognised with their rewards that they received.

Lisa was her usual professional and friendly self and we can’t say thank you enough for what you do.

Thank you, as always, to our national and local spons

 

ors. Our next monthly game is at King David Mowbray on 21st January 2021.

I hope you all have a great festive season with your families, travel safely and see you all next year.

Yours in Nomads
Gary Cahi
Captain
