Breakers Ladies Golf Club Wamberal

What a day! Frrrrrrreeeeezing and windy ....  Not the most pleasant day for lil ole ladies trying to play golf! Forget about looking 'spithy' on such a day, jackets, scarves and beanies were the dress code of the day. A cart was seen flying down the fairways with its occupants wrapped in a blanket. Blogger has it from a very reliable source that it is indeed possible to putt with a blanket wrapped around you! On such a day the scores were just a tad lower than normal. There was one with 38 followed by a 34. Balls went down to 24! Doesn't that makes those of you with scores below 20 feel much better (including me!). The cold didn't affect Judi Eaton with 31 (I hope this is correct!) who was the best of the Breakers girls. Judi came 5th out of a field of 63 in the 60+ age Division. Susan Muna got Nearest the Pin on the 13th and Nell Spargo and Suzanne Connor received balls! Well played girls in trying conditions. Thank you CCWGA for providing opportunities when we...

How lucky to be blessed with another beautiful day for golf, a little bit cool, a little bit of wind but hey, no rain, sleet or snow! The ball is not running quite so far but it did not stop some ladies obtaining some very nice scores. Congratulations to everyone - there were lots of scores above 30 which is great. Welcome to Vicky Duesbury who, not only became a member today, but won Division 2 and also won the Aggregate prize with Holly, on this her first appearance in our comp.  What an introduction to our club! We look forward to having you as part of Breakers.  Lovely to see Yvonne Brooker take out the Division 3 prize. Results were as follows: Division 1:  Winner.  Aiki Harrigan (17) with 37 points                      2nd.       Sally Hopkins (11) with 36 points                      3rd.        Holly Akers (6) wit...

It was good to see a good field of 52 starters in today's competition.  It was so nice to see Lynne Cattaway back after a long period off with a badly injured hand. What did we report last week when we talked about Min Corner's consistent playing? Must  have had a premonition that she would score extra well this week with a +2 taking out the Division 2 trophy. Well done Min! Di Rudd scored the best score of the day with a +3 in Division 3.  Great game Di! Di together with Di Jackson are two more ladies to keep an eye on as their handicaps start to come down. Unfortunately Di Jackson has called a temporary halt to her progress as she has knee surgery next Thursday which will put her out for a few months. Good luck Di we all wish you a speedy recovery. Results were as follows: Division 1.  Winner.  Holly Akers (7) with +1                      2nd.       Mel Sheekey (16) with all square ...

Wow! How good is our course! It was surprising to us all to see how it had dried out so quickly after the dreadful weather of last week. Our thanks go to Wayne and his great crew of workers for clearing all the debris and making it so pleasant for us to play on. Fifty five ladies joined in today's comp. Scores, for most of us, were generally lower with the exception of a magnificent score of 40 for Susan Muna. Beautifully played Susan. Gina Mesiti played well also with 38 points. It's interesting how the majority of us tend to have our highs and lows with our golf but not our Min Corner! Min seems to consistently score 30+! Hope this means we will all be scoring this well when we are in our 80's! You are an inspiration Min.  Today's results are Division 1.  Winner.  Viv Ball (24) with 34 points on a count back from                     2nd.        Holly Akers (7) also with 34 points     ...

It turned out to be another amazing day for golf despite the weather forecasts. Mild, sunny conditions and a predominantly dry course made for very comfortable playing conditions. 46 lady golfers took part in today's comp with one competitor out playing the rest of the field. That player was none other than our hard working Captain, Jenny, who had a blemish free game winning by 5points clear of anyone else.  Great game Jenny, congratulations!!  Complete results are as follows: Division 1.  Winner.  Jenny Chapman (19) with 63 nett.                     2nd.       Sally Hopkins (12) with 69 nett                     3rd.        Viv Ball (24) with 71 nett                     Play off for May Medal was won by Holly Akers Division 2.  Winner.  Peggy Searle (28) with 70 nett ...

The final was played today between Judi Eaton and Cheryl Ledger against Annette McInnes and Dee Barham, with Judi and Cheryl continuing their impressive form, winning 6/5.  It is so nice to see Cheryl back playing and in the winners circle at that.  A big congratulations Cheryl and Judi.
