LADIES CAPTAIN'S REPORT
To begin, I wish to offer condolences to our valued member and friend, Kay Donohue, on the recent loss of her partner, Les. Also to Ian, from the Pro Shop, we were saddened to hear of the passing of your father.
Our Ladies Golfing year is now winding down however we recently had our Captain’s V President’s event, the members being resplendent in either yellow or pink depending on the team they were representing.
Congratulations to President Elaine, whose team was successful for the third year in a row and whose name will once again be engraved on the trophy. Thanks to my team who all tried their very hardest but were beaten by the better team on the day.
Last Wednesday night, we held our annual Presentation Evening and almost 70 ladies wore their retro gear for the themed event. The Fairways Room had been delightfully decorated by Ladies Committee, the Trophy Table looked great and delicious food was provided by Essentially Fresh Catering. We were honoured to have Agnetha from ABBA and Audrey Hepburn join us for the evening.
Many of the awards presented have been mentioned in earlier “Tee Time” articles but some are awarded based on the performance of the Member in a number of events across the year.
These included:
Golfer of the Year: Debbie Gilbert
Most Consistent: Sandy Goldie
8 Best Netts: Sandy Goldie
Club Friendship: Bev Hooper
Best 4 Ball Partner: Debbie Gilbert
President’s Trophy: Val Thompson
Captain’s Trophy: Julia Bruniera.
Congratulations to those winners for their good golfing throughout the year, as well as to all others who collected prizes on the night.
As this will be my last report for 2016, I would like to thank the members of this year’s Ladies Match Committee, in particular Vice-Captains Kaye Griffiths and Julie Laslett, for their hard work and support throughout the year.
Bill and I plan to spend much of the next three months overseas but I look forward to the challenges and rewards of being part of the TGC family in 2017.
To all TGC Members and staff, I wish you the joys of a Festive Season spent with loving family and good friends.
Best Wishes to you all.
Janelle Malcolm
Lady Captain
