MARTINBOROUGH GOLF CLUB REPORT
It has been a busy couple of months at the Club – interclub has started and the Division 4 and 11 teams are both doing well. This year we have the added bonus of some new players who joined us at the start of the season and they are certainly adding some strength and depth to both teams.
The Grumpies have been getting good numbers playing on a Tuesday and it is good to see some ladies joining in. The winners over the past few weeks have been Marion McKenzie, Phil Reid, John Errington, Doug Ferguson, Phil Silby (visitor from Apiti), Bill Jago and Allan Eagle.
