Gents,
Summer Knockouts have been drawn and you should have been emailed your opponent and the due by date.
Remember that it's your handicap on the day that you use. Please agree this before teeing off.
I'll get the draw put up on the boards as soon as I can.
Good Luck in your ties.
Gent's,
Final reminder for paying entry fees for Summer Knockouts, if you haven't paid by Saturday lunchtime then you're not in the draws.
There's no excuse as you've all been emailed a reminder as well.

Congratulations to Mike Stiell and Sandra Millar who won the Gary Smith Shield after battling strong winds and the odd squall.

Diane kindly stood in for Sandra for the photo.
GENTS,
GENTLE REMINDER THAT SUMMER KNOCKOUT ENTRIES CLOSE ON 19th APRIL AND QUITE A FEW STILL TO PAY ENTRY FEES.
