Before competition this week, Damien Dowling provided some chipping coaching to the juniors.  This coaching paid off for our juniors, many of who had a wonderful Chip and Putt round.  The winners were:

  • 3 hole - Macie Hinton
  • 6 hole - Cooper Rehbein
  • 9 hole - Wesley Hinton

Mums and Dads also competed in a Chip and Putt with their children, with the catch being adults must use their child's clubs.  Congratulations to Damien Dowlling, winner of the week.
