Round 3 – 1st of February
Hurstville (hosting) The Coast GC v Eastlake GC
Another barmy morning, with swirling winds after lunch. Just normal summertime weather….
Eastlake GC forfeited their reserves, early Sunday morning.
Quite disappointing. But our reserves managed to have a hit Infront of the field.
It became quite evident, That the course conditions were going to be a leveller…….
Council courses rely on natural rainfall. The only areas that had been watered were the greens.
That paints a clear picture……And preferred lies on the fairways.
It was one of the closest match ups I can remember.
2 matches finished on the 17th.
3 matches squared on 18.
It was a frustrating day for all the coast players.
But we hung in there to get half a point.
2.5 to 2.5
Well, Done!
Big thanks to all the supporters.

Round 2 – 18th January
Eastlake (hosting) The Coast GC v Macquarie Links GC
After 90mm of rain on Saturday, it was a toss of a coin early morning,
Whether this game would commence.
Some toing and froing with the Div 2 managers via text messages.
We finally got the green light. But no carts.
Eastlake is going through some course renovations, which didn’t affect the days play.
The course stood up well, considering all the rain.
All the team were geared up for a wet day ahead….
But thankfully the rain stayed away and the SPF50 needed to be applied.
All matches started tight, as normal,
Its only game on after the 9th and you can see who has the momentum.
An early loss, followed by an early win……
The frustrating part was trying to keep up with each match and getting an update.
This proved difficult with the distances between holes….
Then another win secured…. Good old whatsapp!!
With a decent stroll back, and we all managed to get together around the 18th green.
To celebrate or first win of the year!!
Plenty of grit and fight showed by the team!
Very proud of you all!
Big thanks to all the supporters.
