The Kiewiet I would like to thank everyone for their support as Captain and now that you’ve selected me as Chairman I hope I’ll have the same support. Thanks to Rowan Nicholls for all the time and effort during his term as Chairman. I am sure what he achieved makes it easier for me to carry on. I wish the new committee and all staff the best for the New Year and hope we have a good working relationship during our term. New Committee I would like to thank all our visitors and members who supported us over the festive season, we appreciate your support. Hope you will all be back in April. This month has gone so quickly, it is almost time for our Valentines Dinner again. Please view our menu for Tuesday 14th Feb, book as soon as possible to avoid disappointment. We have a team in the Standard Bank League again. They’ve already played one match in Alexandria and we are proud to say that they turned out to be the winners. We wish you all the best for the rest of the season. CHARLIE AND JANINE |

| Ladies’ Section A happy New Year to you all – may 2012 be a great golfing year for all. Tuesday morning ladies’ golf resumed on 9 January, after a very busy Christmas season, with the weather continuing its run of extreme heat and unprecedented humidity. Results:
The Ladies’ Section held its AGM on Thursday 12 January at 16h00 in the club house. It was well attended with 21 members present. The results of the annual competitions run during the year were announced.
MOST LONGEST DRIVES: Shared by - Heilie Uys, Caroline Kettlewell, Dawn Spiers & Colleen Silberbauer MOST IMPROVED GOLFER 2011: Rochante Coenraad. Office Bearers for 2012: PRESIDENT Colleen Silberbauer A vote of thanks went to Judy Beck for her service to the club during her time as a member of the committee. The following decisions were taken:
Monthly Medal: The first monthly medal will be played on Saturday 28 January. Due to the fact that many of our members will be away on that day it was decided after golf on Tuesday 16 January to play a second medal on Tuesday 14 February and to continue the trend of having more medal competitions on Tuesdays – possibly every second month – to encourage more of our members to play medal. Handicapping System: As from 01 February 2012 the following change to the way in which scores are adjusted for handicap purposes will come into effect:
Handicaps Limitation on hole scores
There is no limitation on the number of 2 over par or 3 over par scores that may be entered.” Please note that as stated there is no limit to the number of 2 or 3 overs that can be taken and these can be taken on any hole.” ECWGA Website: The Eastern Cape Women’s Golf Association has a new website up and running. Please visit it at www.ecwga.co.za for all the news on what is happening in the Province as well as to see all the upcoming events and the league dates for 2012. In closing I would like to welcome all our “Swallows” back to sunny SFB and in particular our new member Trish McMahon from County Wicklow in Ireland. It is lovely to have another keen golfer with us – if only for a while. Finally, a vote of thanks from the Ladies’ Section to the outgoing Chairman, Rowan Nicholls, for his dedication to the club during his years of tenure and congratulations to Charlie Byl and his new committee. We look forward to working with you. See you out there |
