It has been a busy week of golf for the Ladies at the Warwick Golf Club. Many backed up on the weekend after the midweek medal game and on Saturday got into the spirit of Halloween Ghostly Ball Event. On Sunday the ladies turned out in yellow for Greenkeepers Day.
The week teed off with the Warwick RSL Memorial, Mid-Week Medal on Wednesday 27 November. The scores were almost as hot as the weather. Tub Ingall waltzed off with the Division One winner’s prize after a great round which saw her return a great score of 68 nett. Her playing partner, Annice Payne also played well taking out the runner’s up prize after a countback got the nod ahead of Margie Adcock with both ladies returning 73 nett. Tub was certainly in form, also taking out the putting prize with her 25 putts.
There was plenty of hot action in Division – the winner Di Johnston returning a winning score of 69 nett. Runner up Wendy Rhea (73 nett) was the next best in the Division two group while Yvonne Pinington won the putting with 28 putts.
Balls in the rundown went to Margie Adcock 73, Sam Hinze, Helen Olsen and Sharron Cooper (74). One of the new club members Narelle Norris figured in the Pro Pin along alongside Judy Stiff, Margie Adcock and Mel McLennan.
The remaining scores looked like this:- Yvonne Pinington (74), Jill Barnes (75), Trish Bell (76), Janine Stewart (77), Narelle Norris and Majella Kahler (78), Judy Stiff (79), Mel McLennan (81), Michelle Wright and Lyn McKillop (82), Maria Carey (83) and Ros Darton (87).
Gill Young took line-honours in the nine hole competition on Wednesday scoring a solid 17 points but had to survive a three-way countback with Jan Aspinall and Anne Tomkins.
Congratulations Ladies you have all been playing great golf, and no doubt you are all happy with your results.
On Saturday Four teams played the 2021 Halloween Ghostly Ball Event and they certainly got into the spirit of Halloween. There were some great costumes and complemented by buggy decorations.

After the Halloween shenanigans the golfers were back on the course for the annual Greenkeepers Day, a two ball Ambrose. Players turned out in yellow in honour of “DoingItForJarrod.” Every participant playing their part raising funds in support of Kids with Cancer. There was an excellent response to the day and resulted in some successful fundraising for a great cause.
