3 club golf results

Many of you probably thought you would score a lot higher when you could only use 3 clubs, instead of your full bag. Thanks to Joan's statistics, about half of you scored pretty close to the week before. Maybe there was less thinking going on; or we learned we can hit a club less than the maximum distance; or we are better at improvising than we thought. A few had a little more trouble coping with the restriction (or maybe they had a really good game on the 15th!)

Solheim Cup and High School Golf Results

As we say it the summer, it's not the heat; it's the humidity - last Saturday it wasn't (just) the cold; it was the WIND! I don't think anyone would have played had it not been for the Solheim Cup. All 20 brave and hardy souls showed up and played all 18 holes!! (Unlike the men, who had a similar event scheduled.) That in itself is worthy of a "Congratulations"! It was a great day of fun competition and camaraderie. Thanks Sandi for organizing it. In each of the singles and doubles, the East beat the West by one point - couldn't get much closer than that. Congratulations to the East! Here are the results:

Warming up afterwards!

High School Golf:  The COSSA area (including: Belleville, Lakeshore, Peterborough, Lindsay) golf tournament was held on Tuesday at Trillium Wood in Belleville. Several Dalewood golfers had very successful days. Danielle Sawyer placed first with a score of 77; Rachel Jackson was second scoring 93 - both girls will travel to Windsor for the OFSAA (all Ontario) Championship, October 14-15. Natalie Hubbs placed fourth and also qualified for OFSAA.

On the boys' side, Nick Oosterhof (who plays at Dalewood and works in the back shop) won a 4-man playoff over Sam Meek of Kawartha GC (who won the Ontario Junior Bronze earlier this year at Dalewood), Will Richardson of Dalewood, and Sean Trapp of Lindsay. Nick and Sam will also represent COSSA at the OFSAA final.  Be sure to congratulate these young golfers when you see them!
