2019 Playoffs - Final Round

That's all she wrote for another fun year of Men's League golf and despite a little rain shower, we managed to get all 18 holes in to wrap things up as planned.

The Fat Shafts needed to use all of their 14 stroke lead on the final day to hang on for a three shot victory over the KGB to win the "A" Flight. The Fat Shafts finished with a total of 394 while the KGB picked up 11 strokes and made it close with a total of 397. The Dubbers started the day tied with the Whizbangers 20 strokes out of first and picked up some ground to claim third spot with a total of 405. The Whizbangers also picked up a little ground but finished fourth with a score of 411.

We expected the "B" Flight to be a battle on the final day and it didn't disappoint. The Fivesome had a rough day and slipped from first place to third when the dust settled with a total of 416. The Southpaws came away as champs of the "B" Flight with a slim one stroke victory over the Rolling Stones. The Southpaws finished with a score of 400 with the Rolling Stones at 401. The Bogies rounded our the division in fourth place with a score of 426.

In the "C" Flight, the CCCP had a big lead heading into the day and despite picking up a little bit of ground, the Latecomers couldn't overcome the deficit. The CCCP claimed the "C" division with a final score of 426. The Latecomers totaled 440. The Hackers took third with a score of 450 while the Wedgers struggled on the final day and settled for fourth place with a total of 470.

No list of Closest to the Pin winners was available but as I'm sure everyone noticed, there were a lot of impressive shots to earn the honours.

Many thanks as always to everyone who helped to make the day a success behind the scenes. To Tom and Alida St.Denis for their hospitality and awesome golfing conditions all season. Stephen Powell earns our gratitude as always for keeping the league running smoothly all year and for his hard work in putting together an impressive wrap up party. Thanks also to the other helpers behind the scenes today, including Debbie Stewart, Julia Bosma and Rose Moran. We can't forget Stephen Westlake and Kim Defosse who year after year run the putting contest where half of the money raised goes to Terry Fox and the Cancer Society. Thanks to everyone who took part as well.

Just a reminder that even though league play is done, you are still invited to keep coming out Wednesday nights for some always fun best ball action. It's always a good time.

Thanks for checking out the blog each week. If all goes well, we'll keep it going again next season. Have a safe and enjoyable winter. Lets hope it's a warm and short one.
