Deniliquin Golf Club members will gather for the annual general meeting next month.

It will be held at the clubhouse on Tuesday, December 3, from 7pm.

The club is currently seeking nominations for board positions, with nomination forms having been distributed.

Also coming up is the Volunteers Day on Sunday, November 24, where there will be a barbecue to say a big ‘thank you’ to all club volunteers over the past year.

The club could not operate without the amazing volunteer support, and this is a time when the Board expresses appreciation to everyone who helps out.

On course, last Thursday was a medley stableford with 18 and nine hole competitions.

The 18 hole winner was Jane Armytage recording 39 stableford points from runner-up Yvonne Holmes 36.

Nine hole winner was Dot Wharton with 16 points on count back to Marg Marshall.

Saturday was also stableford, with each grade won on count back.

A-grade winner was Troy Grant with 37 points on count back to Ross Pogonoski, B-grade Mark Thomas 38 on count back to Phil Barnes, and C-grade Sue Butcher 36 on count back to Rob Campbell.

In Wednesday’s stableford event, there was a good field of 66 players in three grades.

A-grade winner was Gary Davies who had a day out for a massive 48 points, from runner-up Graeme Willoughby 39, B-grade Colin Drummond 39 from runner-up Ron Friend 38, and C-grade Geoff McCallum 41 from runner-up Dan Wade 38.

Coming up we have stableford tomorrow, nine hole ambrose on Tuesday and stableford next Wednesday.

These will be followed by four ball best ball events on Thursday and Saturday, with nine hole stableford also played on Thursday.

Friday Night Fun resumes tonight, with tickets on sale from 6pm and draws from 7pm. Happy hour is from 6pm.

Quality meals will be available at a reasonable price.

Thanks to everyone who supported the raffle on Saturday night, which was transferred from Friday due to the BABBA concert.
