By way of background the competition was initiated to give medium handicap seniors (eligible to players over 50) the opportunity to represent their club in match play conditions.

Six local clubs are represented in the competition, with each club given the opportunity of fielding two teams. Heidelberg is represented by the Heidelberg Blue team and the Heidelberg Black team. The twelve teams are split into two sections with each team playing against all other teams in their section over a five week period. The teams finishing on top of each section after the Home & Away games progress to the Pennant final.

Heidelberg Blue had a competitive season in their section, but impressively the Heidelberg Black team went through the Home & Away games strongly to top their section and qualify for the Pennant final against Yarrambat Black. In a hard fought contest the Heidelberg Black team came away with a 5.5 to 3.5 win, and thereby secured back-to-back Grand Final victories.

Congratulations to winning team members Andrew Redman (captain), Robert Poyntz, Garry Stafford , Robert Field, Len Belcher, Paul Giannelis, Mark Smith, and John Reggars. Steve Leropoulos, Ray Stewart and Shaun McGovern also played a significant role in getting the team to the top of their division in the lead up to the final.

This competition has been running for 10 years now and is thoroughly enjoyed by all participants, not only for the honour of representing their club, but also for the opportunity to play other courses and compete and socialise with their members.

Thanks to Neil Walmeyer for the role he plays in coordinating the Heidelberg Golf Clubs participation in this competition, and equally thanks to Lindsay, Frances, Jess and the Pro Shop staff for their support when it is our privilege to host.

Go Bergs!

Heidelberg Youth 3 defeated Yarra Yarra 2 @ Riversdale GC

1. Angus Turner lost 6&4
2. Jaryd Wildsmith won 2&1
3. Will Brennan lost 5&4
4. Jack Ning won 1-up
5. Nathan Anderson won 2-up

After halving our first encounter with them in Round 5 last year at Kingston Heath, and then narrowly losing to them on the 19th hole in the Final, we anticipated another closely contested match between the two clubs.

At the turn, our team held the advantage. However, Sandhurst mounted a strong comeback on the back nine, with matches swinging back and forth all the way to the finish. In the end, the contest was decided with a 3.5 result.

Results:

• Stacey Simpson – 2/1 Loss
• Michelle Flannagan – 2/1 Win
• Sevi Skaleris – 5/3 Win
• Liz Sinclair – 4/2 Loss
• Simone Mifsud – Halved
• Natalie Stuart – 2/1 Loss
• Zhiwen Luo – 3/1 Win

Well done to the team for a determined and competitive performance. Heidelberg now sits in 5th position on the ladder.

This week, we head to Commonwealth to take on Kew, aiming to secure a strong result.

Good luck to the team!
