Umkomaas played host to the first South Coast Region (SCR) ladies league game since 2019.
It was wonderful to see all the ladies and great to hear the many compliments about the course.
The ladies took the opportunity to experience the course in preparation for the SCR Champs and KZN Ladies Interclub which will both be played at Umkomaas later this year.
Umkomaas played Southbroom in the first fixture and put their home advantage to good use, winning two of their three matches.
The team comprised Lesa Vergottini, Lesley Fraser, Evija McKelvey, Catherine Schmidt, Sabiha Hulley and Natalie Singer.
Congratulations must also go to Natalie (captain) and Sabiha who have once again been selected to represent the South Coast Region in this year’s Inter-Region tournament scheduled to kick-off in June.
The April monthly mug, sponsored by Halfway Toyota Malanda, was won by Nigel Henson who finished his round three shots better than handicap. Nigel’s 39 points also secured him victory in the D Division competition.
Ladies medal was won by Sabiha Hulley with a better-than-handicap 72 nett, impressive off a low handicap of 4. Runner-up was Natalie Singer who finished nett 74.
Other divisional winners and runners-up included: A Division: Jacques Kirstein 36 points, Patrick Ndlovu 35 points; B Division: Mike Dennison 37 points, Mike Madsen 36 points; C Division: Ken Koster – 36 points, oco Willie Boucher.
Mickey Eriksen took home R230 for securing the requisite 10 points on the jackpot holes, whilst Alwyn Stander, Eugene Van Wyk and Sabiha Hulley (x2) took home the 2-club money.
Next week is the last of the Betterball League and with a few teams just a point or two different on the log, there is everything to play for.
Those wishing to play in Saturday’s competition are welcome to join, simply book your tee time with the pro shop.
