Playoffs Only Weeks Away

First off let me apologize for the league standings having to be added at the end of this weeks post. Something has changed with our site provider that has removed all functionality with the side column which no longer allows me to edit the standings there. If this isn't fixed soon I may have to create a new website using a different provider. Time will tell.

After this week, we only have two more weeks of regular season to go before the playoffs begin. It's my understanding, as it stands, that there will be four weeks of playoffs. The top four teams will make up the "A" flight. Teams five to eight will make up the "B" flight and teams nine to eleven will compete in the "C" flight. Details on how that will work will be made available soon.

Time is running out to make a move but there are still some teams who could make a push and move higher in the standings.

In action tonight, the Latecomers, Southpaws and Fat Shafts all earned six points. The Rolling Stones earned five points while four points each went to the KGB and Dubbers. The Fivesome and Wedgers each grabbed two points while the Hackers took a single point.

The Closest to the Pin winners were Peter Hughes on hole #9 and Shane McGill on hole #18. The 50/50 winner was Randy Grills.

Southpaws Alone In First

With summer less than a week away from its official arrival the conditions, although a bit breezy, couldn't have been much better for tonight's round of golf.

The Southpaws had the low team round of the evening with a 99 and grabbed six points from the Latecomers to move into first place all alone. The Fat Shafts and KGB went into the evening tied for first but now both sit in a tie for second place after an even split earning three points each.

Also earning all six points tonight were the Hackers, Rolling Stones and Dubbers. The  Whizbangers took five points which allowed the Wedgers to earn a single point.

Tim Donaldson tied the Individual Low Gross score by shooting a 28. Andy Koetstra and Rick Dean each shot rounds of 30.

The Closest to the Pin winners tonight were Paul Scobie on hole #3 and Randy Grills on hole #12. The 50/50 winner was Matt Knell.

Sorry no video or photos this week but I was too busy counting my score. See you next Wednesday night.

2020 Playoffs - Week 3

We saw some movement tonight and the last week of the playoffs will be a challenge for teams to make a run at the Division titles but you never know what will transpire.

In the "A" Division the Whizbangers turned in an impressive round of 89, lead by Sandy McLeod and Taylor Rivando who each shot rounds of 29. Steve Guindon added a round of 31. This allowed them to overtake the Southpaws for the lead heading into the final week. Rivando also grabbed the Closest to the Pin prize on hole #12. Steve Westlake of the Fat Shafts had the low round of the night with a one over par 28. Mark Lafee also posted a 29.

Over in the "B" Division the Fivesome have a very comfortable 16 stroke lead with nine holes to play. Kim Defosse had the low round shooting a 29. Randy Grills stuck his tee shot tight on hole #3 to win the Closest to the Pin prize on the front nine.

The Schedule for the final week is posted above. Hopefully all team captains have the schedule soon and will contact you with your tee times to confirm. See you Wednesday.
