On the day, father and son combination Ben Glover and Jack Glover have taken a big piece of the prizes between them claiming major event wins on the day. Dad Ben who is long time Harden Club Champion, claimed the Open Tournament win with a magical little -2 off the stick result, whilst son Jack took the B Grade Nett result with a round 8 better than his handicap for a superb 63 nett. Great stuff by our locals.
Our Club enjoyed hosting visitors from Cootamundra, Yass, Queanbeyan, Murrumbidgee & Binalong on the day putting together quite a reasonable field size under the circumstances. The results of the major events are as featured below, and for the uninitiated, 71 is the par for the course;

Regardless the field size, thanks are due to all those who pitch in and help. From Karen Glover as Acting GM and Field starter/handicapper on the day, through to Rosemary Irving who did a great job on sustenance at the BBQ, and to Mr and Mrs Elliott and Graeme Williams for scoring and prizes/announcing.
Feedback on the course condition and hospitality enjoyed by our visitors was fantastic and the Board of the Country Club was thanked roundly for hosting and sponsoring this year's event.
