2019 OPEN and SENIOR PAIRS

 

 OPEN PAIRS

 

The 2019 Open and Senior Pairs were played on Monday 11th, Tuesday 12th in very hot conditions.   Due to the excessive heat play was abandoned on the Tuesday afternoon  and resumed on Wednesday 13th February at Bateau Bay.   The conditions were much cooler although players had to contend with strong gusty winds.    

Thanks to Bateau Bay, Gwandalan, Terrigal, Ettalong, The Entrance and Avoca Beach for hosting these events and also to Davistown RSL for providing greenspace for the Final of the Senior Pairs on Thursday morning 14th February.
