Our annual round at Sandy Creek found the course in the best condition we have played. Nicely grassed fairways and great weather made for a very enjoyable round. This course has teeth and can spoil a good round very quickly should you venture off the Fairways! Some good scores were posted and here are the results

18 players contested the first SAOGA Match Play comp that ran from Nov 15 thru Mar 16. After narrowly making the semi-finals on count back, Mark Duerden survived as the first winner of the Match Play Cup. Well done Mark! Following the success of the Summer comp, a Winter comp will be held with details coming shortly. Match report for the finals game as reported by Darren Griffiths:
Great scoring conditions and spirited company at Grange East for the finals of the inaugural SAOGA summer match play competition on Sunday 3rd April. Mark Duerden overcame Benn Cox 4&3 to take first prize. A hot start with birdies on the 1st and 3rd gave Mark a 3UP lead after 3 holes. Some great play in the middle of the round by Benn got it back to square, but Mark surged again for the 4&3 win, sealed with a great tee shot to 3ft on the par 3 15th.
In the play-off for third, Darren Griffiths overcame Jim Stobie 3&2. Like the final, Darren jumped to a 3UP lead after 3 holes. From there honours were even for the rest of the round but Jim couldn’t make up the deficit after managing to find a bunker (or two) on virtually every hole!
