Golf Competition
Individual Stableford and 2B Medley, Saturday 29 April
The first round of the season was held at Northbridge on Saturday and the forecast threatened to spoil it a little. But the boys played through the tough conditions and recorded some exceptional results. Tom Livingstone and Cam Newton stood out in the wet to score 48 points in the 2Ball but unfortunately were beaten into second place overall on a count-back. Tom also grabbed 3rd place in A Grade while Cam won a minor prize for his individual effort. Zach France and George Story excelled in their first ever comp rounds for the Shore Golf Team with 36 points each off very low handicaps, Zach scoring a minor prize, pipping George in a countback. And Riley Meale came 3rd in C Grade, though he will be rueing some wayward shots over the last couple of holes that cost him higher honours.
Some boys struggled adapting to the strategic nuances of Northbridge Golf Club and will be looking to put this result behind them as they move forward. Though Stian Constable, who struggled all day, showed that one good shot can bring out a smile by taking out the Nearest the Pin prize on the 15th hole. Regardless of their score, all the boys enjoyed themselves and are looking forward to a great season.
