Wynnum retain Twin Rivers Challenge

he weather conditions were cooler, which made playing quite comfortable. Thankfully the forecast of rain and showers did not eventuate when the Twin Rivers Challenge was held at our club on Sunday 17th May, with a full complement of players.

Congratulations to all players, especially the Wynnum Team who retain this prestigious award. We would like to acknowledge three new club members who entered their first competition, Carol, Graham and Trevor. It was great to see them on the courts and doing so well, with some tremendous shots being played and long hoops being run. Well done to you all. We look forward to watching you progress into pennants and in future comps.

It is always great to welcome our friends from Twin Rivers, who always put up a good fight on the courts. We would like to thank Peter and his Team, and we look forward to the Challenge, playing at their club, on their new courts, next year.

No event is ever successful without the dedicated help of volunteers who arrive before sun up to set courts and hoops, those who configure score sheets/cards/handicaps/time clocks & pegs, green-keepers, line markers, our referees and caterers. We thank you all for a great day and for making it such a success.

Huge thanks must go to Tournament Manager and Referee Deirdre Giles, who runs and organizes great competitions. Thanks Dee. Your work and dedication is certainly appreciated.
