Kingsville 18-hole ladies golf league By Rosalind Knight The Kingsville 18-Hole Ladies League registered a ‘par-fect’ beginning to the golf season. Co-captains Jean Page and Shirley Jacuzzi have kept us organized, game-ready, even scrambling to submit the neatest, most accurate weekly scorecard. The league is excited to welcome new members Ruth Assmann, Sue Brennan, Nancy De Cairos, Jane Hughes and Linda Weingust. The most recent competition on the Gold/Red track was Net Better Ball on May 31 where we put our handicap dots on the card and recorded the
best net score for each threesome or foursome. The team with the lowest net score, a sizzling 61, consisted of Lucille Kraus, Sandy Duncan, Maureen Nefs and Patti Shackleton, all from the Purple Team. Honourable mention for their stellar individual net scores goes to Becky Glidden, 74; Lucille Kraus, 75; and Wali Forster and Shirley Jacuzzi tied with 77. On May 24, we played White/Gold, Net Stableford. Handicap dots were again used, this time to allocate points for bogies, pars and birdies. Individual winners were Bernice Sawyer, 34 points; Stephanie Lytwyniuk, 33; Gwen
Perry, 31; and Mary Jo Laforet, Maureen Nefs, Lucille Kraus all tied with 30 points each. May 17 saw us play the frightening yet skills-promoting Tens Game. Golfers kept track of whether their drives landed in the fairway or not. A fairway drive garnered 10 points minus the number of putts made on that hole. An errant drive, however, cost the golfer points with the number of putts resulting in a negative score for that hole. The most consistently successful drivers that day were Bev Miller, 93 points; Ruth Assmann, 92; Lucille Kraus, 83; and Jean Page, 82.
Talbot Trail seniors enjoy warmer weather By Bob McLean Sixty-one Talbot Trail senior golfers enjoyed a beautiful, warm sunny day for their May 31 league game. Howard Mulrain drained a spectacular 30foot putt on #2 to win the long putt. Ninety-year-old Gerry Becigneul dazzled the playing field with his scintillating shot to within three feet of the #9 pin. Congratulations on winning the CP, Gerry! The warmer weather helped some players to merit lower scores. Others
are still hoping to improve in the near future! The top two golfers were Arkey and Kreug, who fired outstanding 39s. Both Joe Drummond and Dutchy were close behind with their impressive 40s. Excellent scores of 41 and 42 were carded by Pearcie and Fred Michano respectively. Other superb scores of 45 or less were produced by the following seniors: Randy Nash and Al Matthews 43s; Gerry van Deven, Chopper, Joe Vrtel and Gary Hillier 44s; and Bummy 45.

Very commendable results were also scored by Murray Cascadden and Erle Nash. Super seniors Tom Hyatt and Bob Freure, who play off the silver tees continued their brilliant play by shooting 49 and 51 respectively. League scrambles will take place on the third Tuesdays of June, July, August and September.
