Pennant
THE final round of the women’s pennant will be played on Monday with both our scratch team and our division two team needing to win to make the finals.
Our division three team has gained some valuable matchplay experience over the season, and would like to finish with a win, but that will not be enough for them to make the finals this year.
Today’s event is a stableford and second round of the Spectator Trophy for the men.
Good hitting and enjoy the 19th hole.
