MENS NINE HOLE GOLF LEAGUE

Contributed By: Mike Wilt

During this current time period from the beginning of May to the end of June weather was not a factor for any of the nine Wednesdays. Due to low turnout on a couple of the weeks actual games were not recorded for every Wednesday. Participation in the group remains below the number of players we would like to see. With the nine-hole league there are no skill level requirements, so interested players are encouraged to come out and give it a try. Also, the ability to just play nine holes as opposed to 18 certainly reduces the time commitment for this golf group and may appeal to those who do not want to commit to a full 18-hole event. All are welcome to join.

Ken Anton is currently the President and Charles Middleton the Treasurer so you can contact either of them via email on Foretees if you are interested in joining or inquire at either of the pro shops for more information. Or just show up on Wednesday mornings. Games during this time frame were Team Stableford, Two Low Net, Individual Stableford, Flags and Odd/ Even.

Closest to the pin winners were Rick Stein twice and Ken Anton, David Moore and Jim Fraser once each. And the golf course prevailed on two of the outings as nobody was able to reach the green on the designated hole.

Winners during this nine-week stretch were Rick Stein and Jim Fraser three times each; Bob Smith, Charles Middleton, Ed Smith and Joe Sullivan twice each; and David Moore, Don Dashiell, Ken Anton and Jim Wolbrink once each.

During July the group will play at Ocean Creek and in August at Ocean Point, beginning at 8:30 am. The current roster of the men’s ninehole group stands at 26. Annual dues remain a bargain at only $15 per year. The Foretees website is being used for the men’s nine-hole group and you need to register before noon on any Tuesday before the Wednesday event
