Round 1 of the A Grade Pennants was held on Sunday, February 3.
Division 1 was hosted by Waratah GC – in first foggy then fine conditions.
Despite having home advantage Waratah only managed a very close win over Belmont by 4.5 to 3.5. This was the same margin when Toronto defeated last
year’s finalists Merewether. Charlestown, boosted by the presence of the Pickin brothers, were too good for an understrength Pacific Dunes outfit
– winning 7.5 to 0.5.
This division is looking very close and competitive with 5 teams closely matched.
Division 2 was hosted by Newcastle GC in conditions perfect for golf – apart from a serious case of excess mosquitoes
Hosts Newcastle were too strong for Tanilba Bay winning 7 to 1. The strong Muree outfit prevailed over Nelson Bay – winning 6 to 2.
In the other match – Hawks Nest proved too strong for the NDGA Composite side – winning 5 to 3
Next Round will be held on February 10 at Merewether (Div 1) at 10.30am and Hawks Nest (Div 2) at 8.00am
