Dear Members

Last Saturday, the wet weather threatened to ruin our Easter Bonnet Day but in true Saturday Strollers style a very good number of ladies turned up to support the event. Fortunately, the weather cleared by noon, allowing play to proceed with reasonable conditions.  Following golf,  tea/coffee and sandwiches were served in the Green room (now blue!) and many ladies paraded bonnets of great style and flair.  Indeed,  the standard was very high and choosing a winner was very difficult.  The winning bonnet worn by Maureen Shannon was a very apt creation of a golf course complete with flags and chickens.  Marian Byrnes was runner-up wearing a lavish creation complete with parrot. Well done to our winners and to all of you.  Thank you so much for your support, it was greatly appreciated.

Match Play is due to start this month.  The list is on the notice board,  so please put your names down if you wish to participate.  A draw will take place for players/opponents for the first round during the month.  Please support and enjoy!

The Spanish Golfer of the Year is due to start on the 9th April and continue on 23rd April and 7th May.  The two highest scoring cards will be submitted from each competition and the two best scores overall will qualify for the Grand Final.

A little reminder  –  the new handicap system will become effective from this coming Saturday, 2nd April.

Happy golfing,

Dolores
