THE intra-club Spring GC Singles were played in rain, hail, strong winds and occasional sunshine.

Fifteen intrepid members contested the tournament which was played in 3 blocks of 5 players, seeded on handicap with the lowest handicap players in Block A and the highest handicap players in Block C.

The atrocious weather made for very challenging conditions but the dedication of the players meant all the games were completed and all the players stayed until the end of the day.

The block winners and runners-up were:

Block A: Frank Orton 1st with 3 wins (+10 hoops) and Greg Long 2nd with 3 wins (+4 hoops)

Block B: Jane Scorer 1st with 3 wins (+13 hoops) and Bruce Chapman 2nd with 3 wins (+8 hoops)

Block C: Barbara Burgess 1st with 4 wins and Julia Harrison 2nd with 3 wins

Congratulations to all the hardy players who braved the conditions and also to Peter Gordon, Trevor Black and Rae Uptin for organising the play, Les Guzowski for preparing the courts and Ralph Harrison for refereeing.
