Canterbury Golf’s Captains Day was played at Waimairi Beach on Friday with 21 clubs represented from around the Canterbury Region. The course was in excellent order and the hot weather and strong north west winds made conditions challenging for most golfers.
Waimakariri Gorges’s Club Captains Jill Blatch & Reg Riki won the Captain’s Trophy with 67 stableford points. Scoring was very close with only 9 points separating the top 10 teams:
1st Waimakariri Gorge, 67 points - Jill Blatch (35 pts) & Reg Riki (32 pts)
2nd Waitikiri, 66 points - Danae Goosman (29) & Tony Thomas (37)
3rd Scargill, 65 points - Jo Sampson (25) & Andy Johannis (40)
4th Tai Tapu, 64 points - Janette Sprott (29) & Merv Westland (35)
5th Waimairi Beach, 64 points - Billa Field (33) & Jon Sladen (31)
The best individual stableford points were:
