Junior Hockey
Guyra Junior Hockey commenced training last week with Anthony Bull volunteering his time and skill to help with development of our younger members. This was well received by the kids as they learnt the grounding skills for hockey which we will build on over the season. Anthony will continue to run training sessions on Wednesday afternoons at 3.30pm for our juniors during the holiday break ahead of the competition commencing on May 3rd. If anyone is interested in playing U12 hockey on Saturday morning there is still time to join or come to training to give the game a go.

Midweek Golf
Thank you to everyone who supported the competition.
Congratulations to the winning team Baldersleigh Bashers. This team plays in rain, hail and shine. Runners up were Full House, then in third place was Green Grass who are one of the newest teams. Well done everyone.

Good to see the juniors participate in the midweek. Bailey Wilson top scored with Tom Ward and Harry Purvis sharing second. Then we have Ryan Vidler, Noah Brennan and Beau Wilson. Hope to see all the juniors in the next comp.
See everyone again in October. Good golfing.

Ladies’ Golf
Last week the ladies played a Par Medal. The winner was Belinda Lenehan. Kerry Bull was the runner up. Pip White won the nearest the pin on the 18th hole.
We want to send a big thank you to Shane and his crew for all the hard work they have done on the course after all the rain. It is looking fantastic considering how wet it was.
This week is the Foursomes Championships sponsored by Carmichael Wool Co. Next week is a Stroke and Putting Competition along with the 3rd Golf NSW Medal Round.
Happy Easter to our golfers and families!
