Our round one leaders again proved too strong and ran away convincing winners of this year's championships by a massive seven points overall. Darrell Cassidy and Robert Bates posted rounds of 47 on day one and 46 on day two showing their well-forged friendship and golf partnering regularly is just far too good at golf to ignore.
The boys will get the silverware at the end of year toasting of our champions.
The day's event was picked up by the visitor contingent from Yass. Mark Partridge and Sam Porter who are regular visitors to our club, came over for a day out with their mates and played very consistent golf to claim the daily prize with a handy 47 points.
Balls went back to 44 points and were awarded to R Bates and D Cassidy. (46), H Manwaring & B Wales (46) and M Baldry and Rick Preston (44). Runner up in the Championships were Michael Baldry and Rick Preston.
An individual Stableford was run in conjunction with the days 4BBB event for a club voucher and was won by Herby Manwaring who shot a very impressive 41 points to claim same, three points clear of next best, Michael Baldry who shot 38 points.

HAVING a good week of form was Herbie Manwaring. He won the Saturday individual event but before this he collected the midweek 12-hole par 24 stableford also. Herb has shot 28 points or four better than his handicap to win on a countback from a desperately unlucky Ron Kerr, also on 28 points.
Herb lost all four shots he played better than his handicap by, and resumes this week on 8.5. Ron Kerr lost none and will be in the box seat this week.
Coming third was regular podium finisher David James who was one shot back on 27 points. Tie for fourth went to another Ron Kerr round tied with Garth Webb on 25.
