Numbers have been excellent for the Midweek Sporters in recent weeks.
A group of 55 played a Stableford competition on the final Wednesday in September.
The winner of the Hawker Road Function Centre was Craig Burgess with 40 points who narrowly edged out runner-up Ross ‘The Loin King ’Bell on 39 points.
Sporters welcomed back Geordie Russell from Injune.
Another strong field played the October Pro Shop sponsored round on the 6 October.
Eddie ‘Big Cods’ claimed a win over the field of 62 with a nett 64 off his 18 handicap. Doug Rickert played off his 17 handicap finished runner up with a nett 65.
The Warwick Golf course has received a facial and comb-over with greens cored and sanded and a number of the tees receiving some much-needed attention.
Members are likely to find several temporary tees in play for the next few weeks.
Sixty-four Sporters hit the fairways on the 13th playing for the Betta Home Living October trophy.
Cec Watts and Mort Henderson headed the standings at the end of the round with 42 points apiece.
After the countback it was Cec who got the nod to collect the chocolates leaving Mort to settle for the runner’s up prize.
Henderson did however score four balls at the Pro Pin on the 13th.
Details of this Wednesday’s round where Sporters played for the Hawker Road Function Centre trophy will be available in the next edition of Spin.
