What a great day we had at Hever yesterday to kick off our 2011/2012 Pearson season.
It was good to see many of last years squad together with a number of new faces as we enjoyed our first get together that had been expertly arranged by Brenda. Arriving for coffee and bacon rolls we then tackled the Kings & Queens course for some betterball before arriving back for a lasagne lunch.
We had some great scores on the day but the runaway winners were Carol Eldridge and "newie" Gill Gambling with Diana Scott and Helen Stuart coming second on countback from Sue Stickland and Rena Jones. Nearest the pins went to Sue and Viv Allen.
After lunch we were able to discuss some of the arrangements for this years competition with the main points being:
Round robin groups to start asap to get ourselves focused on matchplay and to see who is on form going into the new season. Details will be on the BLOG shortly.
The Fixtures meeting is on Monday 3rd October when we will find out who we have to play this year. Matches to start in November and will be on the Spitfire.
Two Get Togethers have been planned:
Thursday 13th October and Tuesday 1st November. We will approach the vets to see if they are available for a match on the latter date.
As many of last years team have cut their handicaps we will need to introduce new ladies to this years competition and everyone is encouraged to let Helen & Brenda know of anyone they think could be an asset to the squad. We have already received a number of names and are following these up to see if we can get more people involved in the round robin practice matches.
Watch the Blog for further information.
I really enjoyed yesterday and hope everyone did too. Thanks to Brenda for arranging the day and also donating the nearest the pin prizes. Thanks to everyone for joining us in particular Belinda and Diana who filled in at the last minute. And here's wishing everyone a successful 2011/2012 season.
