It has been a busy two weeks for Maclean Lady Golfers. Twelve ladies travelled to the three day Northern Rivers Tournament at Ocean Shores.  Kim Wiblen played well both days and won a major nett prize with Sheree, Helen, Pat, Nancy, Chris F and Henny all playing well on the first day. Prizes went to Sheree, Pat, Henny and Chris. We had a great day time away and congratulate Jacki Brattti from Casino who was 2017 Champion.

At Maclean we held the Vets ‘Week of Golf’ which was a great success. We shared our Wednesday with the men and our small field had a great day.

On Tuesday 26th we hosted the annual Gimmy Shield in a friendship day with the ladies from the four clubs in the Valley and it was a great day and well supported by every club.  The winners on the day were Anne Groom from Yamba and Elena Roylance. Thanks to everyone who came and made it such a great day.

Last Wednesday we played the first qualifying round of the handicap championship and the star of the day was Pauline Ryan winning Div 1 with the runner up Sheree Forsythe in Div 2 Hennie Taranto was the winner with Sandra Youlten the runner up.  Best gross went to Sheree in Div 1 and Div 2 Hennie.

NTP’s: Div 1 – Kate Hemmy; Div 2 – Hennie Taranto. Overall – 11th Monica Crittenden; 7th Pat Harris. Balls went to H. Granny, K. Wiblen, C. Forrester C Picton, N. Phillips, D. Moore, and S. Fong Kee.

Thanks go to our sponsor Chris Picton who’s unique and beautifully presented prizes were very much appreciated by the winners.
