GOLF CAPTAIN’S REPORT

The Pymble Golf program enabled students to develop their golfing skills both on the range and the course. The 2021 program was instructed by Avondale Golf Club professional Mr Ben Paterson and coaches. The students received individual coaching lessons to fine tune their chipping, putting and driving and the improvement from each girl was impressive. It has been amazing to watch the progression of our golfers during the year as well as the growth in the Pymble program. Congratulations to Sophie Tong, Year 3, on her remarkable achievements this year. She won the US Kids Golf Australian Masters in the 8 and 9 Years age group when she competed on the Hunter Valley Golf Course for two days. She also received nett runner up 11 Years and Under age group in the St George Junior Masters at Beverly Park Golf Course in December 2020. In January 2021, Sophie played in the Harvey Norman Jack Newton Junior tournament and won overall girls nett champion (including 15 Years and older group) at 27 under her handicap, dropping to 17.4. These results are outstanding considering Sophie had just turned eight, truly a star on the rise!

The great success of the Pymble Golf program would not be possible without the Golf Coordinator Mr Edward Ellwood-Hall, whose commitment towards the Pymble Golf community was a great source of inspiration for the girls. It was a delight to watch the girls develop their confidence and skills in golf, and I hope that the Pymble Golf community continues to flourish. Amber Cai, Captain of Golf
