Committee and The Rest– 11th March 2016



I must apologise for the confusion today for which I take full responsibility. Some members marked their cards as a Medal (including the captain) and some as a Stableford (including the Scrutineer). Both argued their case vociferously. Although Stableford cards can be standardised as a Medal card, it was interesting that positions on the leader board do not necessarily stay the same. Also some interpreted the rule that the person whose drive is chosen is prevented from taking the next shot but can come back on the third shot (regardless of where the ball lies) whilst others take the view that the person whose drive is taken cannot come back into play until the green is reached.  Because of this, the rules for Limited Hassle will be re-drafted before we play this format again.



As a result of these factors (and others) today’s competition is void and your £2.00 entrance fee will be returned.



For those who are curious whether they might have won, the best Medal scores were



Barrie Heath/Mick Aldridge/Alan Davis     60 Marked as a Medal

Danny Dowell/John Wallis/Malcolm Roy  61 Marked as a Medal

Brian Hodder/Rod Stevens/Chris Gingell   62 Marked as a Stableford     

However, there were seven 2’s each paying £1.00

The final round of the Winter League will be played on Monday 14th March. Because the computer is set up for 4BBB at 90% of combined handicap and we have continued to apply ¾ for the duration of  this competition, please do not attempt to enter your scores into the computer. Instead, please leave your cards in the bar.
