Smiffy
Grand Slam Winner
Popped down to the club today to pay the deposit and confirm approx. numbers. Despite the recent hot weather we have had down here, the course looked in absolutely fabulous condition, fairways all nice and stripey and the greens looked really pacey.
Just to let you know the format for the day.
Cost of the day is £75.00 per player. (It would be appreciated if players could either pay cash, or bring a cheque made out to Cooden GC for this amount please, rather than try to pay by credit/debit card. I will be popping up to see the Secretary to settle up during the lunch break and it makes it so much easier with either cash or cheques! Thank you)
This price includes.......
Coffee and bacon rolls (served from 8.30am)
18 holes
Lunch (Ham, egg & chips)
18 holes
2 course evening meal (jacket and tie necessary I'm afraid).
At the moment we have 30 players, 25 of which have confirmed attendance, I am still waiting to hear from the other five.
We will be playing in groups of 3, and the 1st tee is booked from 9.30am and again from 2.30pm.
Due to the numbers involved, (the last group won't be going out until 3.37pm), the evening meal is planned to be from approx 8.15pm.
I'm hoping that everybody attending will be happy to put £5.00 in a prize "pot"....which should give us a minimum prize fund of £125.00....£150.00 if everybody turns up!
As previous years, it's planned to play a team event in the morning, followed by an individual stableford (off full handicap) in the afternoon.
I would have loved to have played a Texas Scramble in the morning but unfortunately Cooden do not allow this format, which is a shame. In past years we have just added all three team members scores together but maybe this year try something different? Maybe have just one score counting on the first six holes, two on the next six and all three to count on the final six??? If anybody has any suggestions, please feel free to throw them in the hat!
As I say, the 1st tee is booked from 9.30am. This means the last group out in the morning will be at 10.37. If anybody has any preference for an early or late tee time please let me know. I appreciate that some of you are travelling a fair distance to get here.
Also, if you have any preference to playing partners, again let me know and I will try my best to accommodate everyone!
If you have any questions at all, please ask.
Really looking forward to our return.
