Richard Gould did best for C grade with a score of 36 points, which was right on the number for his handicap of 29.

A score of 35 points or better down to a count back was required to win a ball down the line, of which was achieved by a further eight players including Glenn Wells who displayed a welcome return to form by scoring a great 39 points.

Speaking of form, there is no one displaying more consistency at the moment than Grant McKay, who for the third week in a row features amongst the best performers. A Saturday score of 37 points also included the two neatest the pins on the par three 8th and 16th holes.

At the other end of the field Bill Low celebrated his birthday by scoring just the 15 points for his round, which held up the rest of the field. Bill Papadopoulos also features amongst the better players by also scoring two nearest the pins, being both the 9th and 11th holes.
