President's Report & Results Atherton 21 Apr

Today we played a stableford event at Atherton.It was a consistency event and please note that all single stableford events throughout the season qualify for the Savannah Cup, now one of our major events to be presented at the end of the year.

It was rather disappointing that only 57 men and 11 women bothered to make the journey as the Atherton course is in great condition with greens putting true and at a reasonable pace. I recommend that you all organise a car load to attend our next game there on 19^th May.

Ian Tindall scored a hole in one at the par 3 11^th and I am led to believe that it is not his only ace in recent times. Well done Ian and I hope you have given that ball to the captain so it can be mounted on a trophy and presented to you on presentation day.

Today the sponsor was Golf World and we thank them for the support.  Also a special thank you to Treasurer Di  for turning up even though she was unable to play.

Our rule is that if there are not 60 players there will only be one grade for men.

Next weeks game is at Cairns Golf Club.
