Hole in one has James Browne singing

Both the men and ladies travelled over the weekend for interclub pennants with the men heading to Cairns Golf Club whilst the ladies travelled to Atherton.

Both A and C Grade got winning results for the men, keeping their finals hopes alive, while B Grade dropped out of finals contention with another loss. The men play their final round this Sunday at Half Moon Bay.

It was all good news for the ladies with four wins, a half and a loss on Sunday moving them into third place after the final round of the season.

They finished behind Paradise Palms and Half Moon Bay and half a point ahead of Cairns. Congratulations to the ladies on their result and thanks to all who played throughout the year.
