2011  Avenel Tournament - Held Thursday 11 August 
 


“Sun shines for L’Oreal Ladies Day”


A beautiful sunny day greeted golfers for Avenel’s L’Oreal Ladies Day last Thursday. Unfortunately heavy rain in the preceding days did deter a few players, however 42 ladies took to the fairways to play for the lovely L’Oreal prizes on offer.

In keeping with the great weather, some hot scores were recorded on the day, and the winner of A Grade, with the fantastic score of 83-17-66, was Julie Trask (St. James). Julie was streets ahead of the field and actually returned the best scratch score of the day, but the major trophy was for the handicap event, so accordingly she received that.

Euroa golfer, Freda Edwards, received the runner-up trophy on a count-back from Gail Leigh (Marysville), both players scoring 73 nett. However, Gail picked up a trophy for the best scratch score, having shot 86 off the stick.

In B Grade, local members, Anne Burns and Joan Shelton were tied on net 74 at the end of the day, but Anne triumphed in a count-back. Joan took out the B Grade scratch with 102 off the stick. The runner up trophy was once again decided in a 3 way count-back, and Marion Williamson (Alexandra) was the lucky one, defeating Pam Sprunt (Mansfield) and Kath Jekabsons (Romsey), all players being tied on nett 75.

Julie Trask, nett 66, won the Vets event and Baby Boomers went to Denise Doolan (Woodend) with nett 74. Julie, Pat Cook and Pam Sprunt won the small teams event, while nearest the pin on the 5th was Liz Amos (Marysville) and Helen Dennett (Kilmore) was the sharp shooter on the 18th.

Avenel Golf Club would like to thank L’Oreal Paris for their ongoing support of our tournament. The fantastic skincare prize packs they provide are extremely popular with the ladies.

President Pam and Captain Lyn extend a big thank you to everyone who contributed to make the day such a success. The course was great, the organization was great, the food was great and the company was great – what more could you ask for!!

2011  Mabel Vearing Silver Salver - Held at Avenel, Thursday 16 June 
 

 

ST. JAMES WINS MABEL VEARING SILVER SALVER

In a stark contrast to last year, when players were literally blown off the course, this year’s Mabel Vearing Silver Salver was played in perfect conditions.  Seventy-one players participated in the event, with teams from 15 of the 18 Dalhousie District clubs being represented.  We also had teams from Kialla, Mooroopna, Nagambie, St James and Yarrambat Park.

The course looked great and many favourable comments were received.  Sincere thanks must go to our loyal band of volunteers, who continue to give so much of their time to ensure that we not only have a course to play on, but that it is in tip-top condition. Thanks must also go to our lady members for providing a wonderful spread for lunch, and as always, it was much appreciated by the players.

Life Member Iris Sidebottom, daughter of the late Mabel Vearing, presented the Salver to the St. James team of Julie Trask, Ruth Andrews and Pat Cook, who won with a combined score of 105 points, the next best being Marysville on 101 points.  St. James is one of many clubs who have been good supporters of our tournaments over the years, so it was pleasing to see them win.

A Grade was won by Editha Ott from Trentham with 37 points.  B Grade went to one of our own, Levenia Redfern, who had the best score for the day with 39 points. C Grade was won by Ruth Andrews from St James, on a count back from Marion Sargent from Mansfield, both ladies scoring 38 points.  Vets was won by Levenia Redfern, and Sandi Wicking from Kilmore won the Baby Boomers trophy. The St. James girls also won the Small Teams event.

Nearest the Pin on the 5th was won by Jess Pickwick from Kilmore. The 8th went to Liz Amos, Marysville. Jan McKay from Avenel was the sharp shooter on the 14th, and Helen Dennett from Kilmore won the 18th.

Thanks again to EVERYONE who contributed to make the day such a success.

2011 WGV Veterans Championships - Held at Ballarat from 28 February - 03 March 
 

 

Congratulations to Mary Campbell of Trentham GC, on winning the 36 Hole Nett in the 55-59 Age Division of the 2011 WGV Veterans Championships. 

 

This is a 4 day event, the first 2 days being stroke play, with the top 8 players qualifying for match play. There were 60 players in the field, coming from all parts of Victoria. The new Ballarat course is very challenging, and conditions were extremely trying, with wind and rain on the first day, and strong winds on the second.

 

Mary Campbell (now playing off a handicap of 17) was also 2010 Dalhousie Player of the Year, and is pictured here with that trophy, presented to her at Trentham on Monday 21 March.

Thanks to Rod Campbell for the photo
