Drive-in and Betterball

 Drive-in and Betterball

We didn't play on Thursday because of the weather but Saturday 26th saw many of our ladies turn up for Frieda's Drive-in with rattles, whistles and air horns in hand!


We had sold 44 squares for a bit of fun and to raise some money for Frieda's charity but we hadn't thought of one thing!

What if Frieda hit her ball OB?


Getting ready for Frieda!


With a fierce southerly wind maybe we should have considered it... but Frieda made a fabulous connection with the ball and it flew straight over the 18th fairway over the wall on to the caravan roof!

Out of Bounds!

Sue S made the lovely suggestion of "out of bounds means we should give all the money  to charity..." everyone agreed so Frieda's charity, gained £44.

It was lots of fun - we made such a racket with whistles and air horns and rattles... !

Afterwards we played a betterball competition with 16 lovely ladies playing. 


Our winners - appropriately - our new Captain Frieda with Sue D scoring 22 points.

In second were Sue S and Lyn with 21 points, and in third were Claire and Ros with 19 points (there were three pairs on 19 so countback was needed!)



Well played everyone - it was hard work in the wind and we were so glad when Frieda decided 11 holes were enough. The course is looking great - thanks as always to the green-keeping team and thanks Lindsay for doing the cards.



It was fabulous to see so many who came up to support Frieda's Drive-in and to play and stay for coffee afterwards. 

Lets hope for better weather soon!
