Game 17 Feb CANCELLED

All,

The game tomorrow at Gordonvale is cancelled as they can't get machinery on the course with the wet.

Mareeba advised they would prefer not to host as the course is wet with more rain coming in & they are undergoing course maintenance as well.

Atherton is wet down the back & no carts are allowed on the course.

If anyone wants a game, both those courses are playable, but we will not be scheduling a game at either in place of Gordonvale tomorrow.

If possible will try to reschedule the game at Gordonvale for next Tuesday, but the weather forecast does not look promising.  Watch this space.

Next Game Gordonvale 17 Feb

All,

Our game next Tuesday is a single stableford at Gordonvale sponsored by Cazalys AFL.

However, in view of the forecast of heavy rain over this weekend, the game may have to be cancelled.

Yesterday the course was perfectly playable & it drains well, but I will be informed of the state of the course on Monday, so watch this blog for updates.

If the game is cancelled, it will be rescheduled for the week after at the same course.

Louis

President's Report & Results Mareeba 3 Feb

PRESIDENTS REPORT AND RESULTS

MAREEBA 3RD FEBRUARY 2015

President Roger welcomed a field of 90 players to Mareeba for the first event of 2015.  There were 74 men and 16 ladies who played a single stableford after the scheduled 4BBB was scrapped because of a mix up with the prizes supplied from the sponsor. 

He also welcomed 1 visitor, Tony Lovatt of Mareeba and 4 new members being John Evans from Cairns and Ken Smithson,Craig Barclay and Mike McManus, all from Half Moon Bay. He also thanked the members of Mareeba for their work in making the day a success. 

The defibrilator was once again shown to those present and don't forget that any member is welcome to have a look at this device at any time and familiarise themselves with this potential lifesaver. 

Those members wishing to use their own cart at Half Moon Bay will have to comply with the club policy,which means that you will have to provide proof that you hold public liability insurance that covers the use of your buggy. You are welcome to ring the manager at Half Moon Bay for details.

Finally, we must thank our sponsor Mitre 10 Mareeba for their support.
