 Hi ladies some members have had trouble going on the wait list for the new 9 hole comp starting next Saturday 7th August. I have attached a photo with 3 arrows indicating what you need to do. 1: Change the time to 12:30pm (otherwise you won't be included in the comp tee times) 2: Tick the 9 hole box 3: press the add tab

 What a beautiful day to play golf!! The scores are reflecting how well the course is drying out. Well done to the winners. Since we haven't been together for so long, I thought we should celebrate those ladies who have had birthdays this month. 7th was Viv Ball, we all saw her balloon as we went to the first tee. Then 10th Moya Allen, 14th Christa Cleary, 20th Jenny Fletcher, 22nd Jan Portelli, 23rd Charmaine Armbruster and 24th Dee Dimond. Happy Birthday to all these lovely July ladies! Another of our ladies is leaving us this week. We say goodbye to Di Jackson who is heading off to sunny Queensland to live. We wish you good golfing in your new home and will certainly miss your smiling face around the course Di. Here are today's results. Remember, once again due to technical difficulties, the balls did not post again. They will be put on your account as soon as this is rectified. https://portalpreview.micropower.com.au/breakerscc/competition/prizes?CompetitionId=211448

Tuesday and Sunday Competitions

 It has been brought to my attention that some ladies have misinterpreted  Kens letter. Tuesday and Sunday's Competition is for Men only. Saturday is mixed as per usual. The only change is they are now a 9 hole competition. Ladies Thursday comp is still 18 hole's.

Golf updates

Please read the following email below from Ken Pearson in regards to golf on Saturday's.  Thursday's will remain 18 holes. We have recognised a few ladies do miss out on a tee time. We have decided if anyone goes on the waiting list through the portal and ends up not getting a game they will get automatic entry for the following week. Please don't contact Nicky to put you on the waitlist this MUST be done through your portal. If anyone doesn't know how to go on the wait list please contact Michelle Hughes 0400378855. Club Championships are on hold for the time being and once the next announcement from the government is made we will look at new dates. Dear Golfers, Your golfing committee had a meeting with myself and Henderson Golf to discuss the concern of members not being able to play a round of golf in competitions due to the COVID restrictions. The current restrictions only allow two players per group, resulting in the number of players being a maximum of 78 player

Balls not awarded

 Unfortunately, due to a technical issue, the balls won today were not able to be put onto the winners' accounts.  Once the issue is rectified, they will be awarded. Technology is wonderful when it works!!

Results Thursday 22nd July

  What a glorious day to be out exercising!! The scores today certainly indicate that the course is drying out nicely. There was even a little run! Well done to the winners.  https://portalpreview.micropower.com.au/breakerscc/competition/prizes?CompetitionId=214536 Here's a thought for everyone...  If you carry your sand bucket around the whole course without emptying it, then you are only moving the sand back to it's starting point.  Why don't you and your playing partner adopt a fairway each and aim to fill in as many divots as your buckets will allow? The course is getting so much use that we all need to make sure we keep it in as good a condition as possible.  There are refill points at every tee, so if you run out on one fairway, you can top there for the next.

 Wow it was certainly a tough course today as shown by the results 😁The weather was on our side today with a small drizzle for the first few holes then the sun took over. After todays turn around we will have to drop 4 spots next week due to the build up. When arriving at the at any of the Par 3's and there is a build up please consider using the call up system. Quite a few of us did this today and it helped a lot. A problem we had today was ladies were not keeping a safe distance from others. If there is more then 2 groups at a tee please do not join together for a chat. It will only take someone driving past or a neighbour to report this. Also please don't congregate in the car park. Please only arrive 15min before tee off otherwise stay in your car.
