Chipshots – 16 March 2018

COURSE AND NEW CLUBHOUSE NEWS

Yesterday morning the ramp up to the club entry and carpark was poured. This ramp requires a substantial curing period, so it is great to have this ticked off. There is also a pedestrian ramp which will be formed up alongside this ramp, and the gaps in between will be landscaped and planted out.

The fit out of both the kitchen and the bar is continuing. The exhaust hoods in the kitchen have now been installed. The bar frame is now fixed in place and water and electrical services are being installed.

In the back of house area the cool rooms and freezers are nearly completed with cooling fans and units installed this week.

In the pro-shop a team has been working on the golf simulator bays. The frame and wall panelling is currently underway, with the whole fit-out due to be finished by the end of next week.

The AV and data cabling is still ongoing with a mindboggling amount of cables still being run throughout the venue. These will all lead back to our comms room which is currently in the state pictured below.

Flemmings have been receiving deliveries of fill this week to build up the level of the practice putting green which is beginning to take shape. The chipping green bunker has been formed up, along with the greenside bunker on the new 9th hole. We are awaiting sign off from the course architect on these bunkers before further work on the bunker drainage can commence.

Flemmings have been busy spreading soil and shaping the new 9th fairway. Preliminary work has also now commenced on building the tee complex for this hole.

MEN’S FOUR-BALL KNOCKOUT

The final of the 4ball knockout was conducted last Saturday. The winners were Gerardo Callao and Toby Simes who outlasted our Club Captain John Cozens and his partner Ron Caves with a win on the 19th hole.

It has to be said that the only time that Gerardo and Toby were in fact in front was on the 19th. They were dormie 2 down on the 17th, then proceeded to win the next three holes to take out the event.

As usual we offer congratulations to the winners and commiserations to the losers and look forward to seeing them at the Annual Presentation Night for their own report on the event.

Hello All

I’m afraid to reveal our Pennants side was soundly outplayed last weekend beaten by Warringah at their home course 5.5 to 1.5.

Warringah are a very strong side and with last weekend’s win wrapped up our division.

Another great result from James Roper playing at No1 with his 3 and 2 victory along with Sean Twomey’s halved match.

Still we  will finish most likely second in our division , avoiding the dreaded relegation playoff match.

Not the heroics of last year but you can be confident each member of the side represented Strathfield in an exemplary manner.

Revenge will be ours this Sunday as we host Warringah in a dead rubber at 7 am.

The team will be;

Paul Chilari
Craig Delaney
Jason Fanning
Matt Kelman
James Roper
Jack Snelgrove
Sean Twomey

Any member support will be warmly welcomed.
