Ladies encouraged to come and try golf

A DOWNPOUR over the weekend kept any golfers off the greens at the Millaa Millaa Golf Club however this Saturday will see a 3-ball modified stableford being played to entice more women to take up a golf club.

Each team will have an experienced club member with them to advise and assist the team but will not be playing.

Each player will have a mulligan allowed on each hole and clean misses will not be counted, there will be no handicaps and the game will be played over nine holes.

The day is free, all equipment is supplied so ladies are encouraged to come along and give golf a go at 1.00 pm Saturday.

Games washed out

THE weekend’s weather put a stop to sports across the Tablelands including Mareeba’s Cricket Far North second grade match against Mulgrave at Borzi Park on Sunday.

As the game was a washout both teams were awarded three points each and Mareeba rises to seventh on the table, roughly

20 points away from fourth place and a spot in the semifinals.

Mareeba has two games remaining in their season with their next match being against Norths Spicy Bite at home and the following week is against Rovers at home again.
