Country Club CLUB NEWS / KLUBNUUS Dear Homeowners, members and guests, We had 215 mm of rain from 12 – 16 May 2017. Unfortunately this all came down after the first day of Tee for Two and continued on Sunday and Monday, causing course closure for 5 days. Luckily we managed one round for the Tee for Two and the Country Districts ended up being held over 3 of the 5 day tournament. Both events had to be cut short but at least they were both completed with a result. Course news The course is in a great condition and held up exceptionally well with all the recent rains. The over seeding of the greens has proven to be huge success thus far and the feedback received from players playing in the Tee For Two & Country Districts about the course, especially the greens, have been very positive. We can now confidently host big tournaments in winter. Happy golfing! Geagte Huiseienaars, lede en gaste Ons het vanaf 12 - 16 Mei 2017 ' n fantastiese 215mm reënval gehad. Ongelukkig het dit alles na afloop van die eerste dag van “Tee for Two” afgekom en op Sondag en Maandag het die reën aangehou. Dit het 5 dae lank gereën. Gelukkig het ons een rondte vir die “Tee for Two” behaal en die “S.A. Country Districts” het ten minste 3 uit die 5 dae hul toernooi gehou. Albei toernooie Winners of the S.A. Country Districts Tournament: Kwazulu-Natal Province moes kortgeknip word, maar hulle was ten minste albei voltooi met 'n finale resultaat. Baannuus Die baan is in 'n goeie toestand en het besonder goed gehou met al die onlangse reën. Die feit dat ons 'n rukkie terug die baan oorsaai het, het tot dusver groot sukses behaal, en die terugvoering van spelers wat in die “Tee for Two” & “Country Districts” gespeel het, was baie positief oor die baan en veral die setperke. Ons kan nou met groot selfvertroue in die winter toernooie aanbied. Geniet die gholf! Meyer du Toit Golf Director / Gholf Direkteur
