The ‘Friendliest Club’ looks forward to hosting men from across KZN as they tackle our course on Friday and Saturday.

Eight of our ladies will be travelling north to Richards Bay, competing in the KZN Interclub gold (Natalie Singer and Sabiha Bacaus) and bronze divisions.

The foursomes format over three days tests everyone’s golfing abilities but the social events, as always, promise fun and camaraderie.

The ladies will be taking notes as Umkomaas has the job of hosting this competition in 2020.

Good luck to all our players who will flying Umkomaas’ flag – may your drives be long and putts short – and here’s hoping we will have great news to report next week on your success.

The second round of the club’s betterball league was played in scorching conditions.

Whilst members all commented on the fact that it was the first time in ages there wasn’t a howling gale to fight, I’m sure they would’ve appreciated a cooling breeze.

In first place on 44 points were T Naicker and A Seepersad.

Runners-up on 43 points were Barrie Taylor and Moonsamy Nelson, counting out S van der Bosch and D Kemp.

Thank you to Russell McElvey for his sponsorship of the nearest the pin prizes which were won by Harold Horsley (4th), Robbie Mathias (9th), Keith Vergottini (13th) and Barrie Taylor (17th).

Bruce Sutcliffe was smiling as he picked up two 2-clubs with Saga Reddy one.

And it seems the jackpot holes were too well chosen as no-one managed to pick up the qualifying 10 points across the four holes, so the carry-over means that next competition promises a healthy jackpot.

Hunt the Joker stands at R5635

R5 buys you a ticket in the draw to win the chance to turn over one of the cards in the cabinet.

So far, the joker has remained elusive but it’s getting down to the wire.

Visitors are always welcome at the club so why not come down for a drink this Saturday afternoon, pick up a couple of tickets and be in with a chance? Draw takes place at 5pm.
