Down the field we have The Drivers with 63 points, The Wedges with 62 points followed by the Jiggers and The Lobbers. We have a long way to go and I am sure that the competition will be intense between now and the end of March! Just a little reminder that team members are also required to play two match play matches against their opposite number between now and the end of March. The draw for these matches is posted up in the Clubhouse.
The Winter League will be played over 13 holes for February and March. There is great activity in the competition with team members re-entering the competition in an effort to improve their score. The Get into Golf players have also made a huge effort to get out and play and are contributing valuable points to their respective teams.

Jean playing off 11 had 28 points. Joan Sheehan made a good comeback to Winter golf when filling the second slot. Playing off 12 Joan had 21 points. In third place we had our hardworking Competitions secretary Phil Kelly playing off 14 with 16 points.
February Ongoing 9 Hole Competition: The ongoing 9 hole competition is underway. The playing conditions are very good and the evenings are getting a little longer! Playing a quick 9 hole is really good practice for the Summer season ahead.
