The 18-hole ladies division championship was finalized this week by their third game total.
Pat Nicklin’s stellar game today just wasn’t quite enough to beat out Janice Cross’s consistent good play so Cross takes it with a three game total of 264. Second low gross goes to Carol Bouchard with Patsy Gauthier taking third spot with her score of 281.
Nicklin is the low net winner with a score of 200. Sandra Simpson takes second place in the low net with 215 while Carol Hastings with her score of 223 places third low net.
In the senior division, we find Bouchard (276 strokes) in first low gross position. Anna Marie Krikke (281 strokes) in second and Gayle Rhodes (211) in third.
Low net seniors are Sandra Simpson (215) in first place, Marie Randal (222) in second and Hastings (223) in third. It was a tight very competative competition.
Nicklin’s score of 87 was the score to beat today giving her the low gross honours. Low net went to Linda Christian.
The fun part of the game was the ball sweep which gave a new ball to the member who sunk the longest putt. On hole No. 6 for the under 26 handicappers it was Patsy Gauthier who’s steady hand and good eye took the prize. Shannon Haggard had it for the high handicappers sinking hers on hole No. 17.
Everything seems to happen at once on the course. It was also the day to determine the qualifiers for the handicap cup. The final round for this competition must be played by Sept. 16. The line-up will be posted in the ladies lounge for those that qualified.
The “B” Team will be having a home game on the Sept. 23 and needs more players. Contact Carol Bouchard if you can come out and play.
The “C” Team will be playing at Arrowsmith on Sept. 24.
Solheim Cup players will be on deck this Friday (17th) here at home. Format will be a Stableford with an 8:30 a.m. shotgun start.

The Zone 6 – four ball net was held at Morningstar over the weekend.
The Alberni team of Sandra Simpson and Olga Kanigan placed third low net. Kudos to them.
