Match Report – Woodlands Golf Club (Stableford Event) – 10th June 2025
It’s now Winter and the early forecast was for a few showers throughout the day. What a beautiful day for golf it was at the Prestigious Woodlands Golf Club, the Sun was out with a slight breeze. Because of the low numbers for the event we had to shuffle groups around for a two tee start on Holes 1 and 10, which seemed to work quite well. The course was in excellent condition with the greens running quite well, you just had to miss the deep bunkers around course.
There was a total of 35 players for this Woodlands Cup stableford event of which we had 7 members playing their first round, Kevan Fox (SGA), Colin Holmes (Heidelberg) Mike Dowsley (Brighton), Steve Holmes, Juris Briedis, Richard Bland and Tim Scrase all from Camberwell. There was only 1 Visitor Tim Chamberlain from Future Golf. Welcome to all the new members to the Melbourne Vets.
The Woodlands Cup winner on the day with a great score of 39 Points was Barry Thompson (24) from Eastern on a countback.
The A Grade Winner was Juris Briedis (15) from Camberwell with 39 Points, runner up Don Hackett (14) from Heidelberg with 34 points on a countback from Mal Dunkley (12) from Camberwell.
