Round 3 Pennant

Round 3 was almost a full week ago. It's only now that I've been able to write up the results. I have been away on the East Coast of Tasmania for most of the week taking photos. I'll be posting some of them in the future.

But back to golf! Round 3 saw the Pennant teams of Quamby continue to their seasons in good fashion. Division 7 won it's second round against Tam O'Shanter. Division 8 got it's first win against Bridport and Division 3 narrowly lost to Greens Beach.

Division 3 Played Greens Beach away from home. They went in with the strongest team they could but were unable to get over the boys from the beach. The team was Corey deBruyn, Duane Morgan, Paul Martin, Matt Marston, John Murray, Matt Adams and Nic Bauld. The team lost 4/3. The winners were Paul Martin, John Murray and Nic Bauld.

The same team will meet Bridport at home Sunday. We will be looking to square up the ledger and go into the break 2-2.

The other game in Div 3 was Exeter v Bridport. Bridport won 4/3

Division 7 played Tam O'Shanter at home. The team had a couple of changes for this round with the inclusion of Colin Butterworth, and the return of Steve Lovegrove. The team was Colin Butterworth, Steve Lovegrove, Anthony Burrows, Denis Lockwood, Dan Scott, Justin Ryan and Mitchell Britton-Thomas. After some tight matches the team managed to run out winners 5/2. The winners were Colin Butterworth, Anthony Burrows, Denis Lockwood, Justin Ryan and Mitchell Britton-Thomas.

This was a fantastic result for the team! We now have 2 wins out of 3 rounds and go into Sundays game against Scottsdale with some momentum.

The other game in Div 7 was Scottsdale v Mowbray. Scottsdale won 7/0

Division 8 had it's first home game against Bridport. The team was in need of it's first win and had a very good side on the course. The team was Don Mackie, Stephen Clarke, Glen Duncan, Leon Towns, John Cullen, Steve Burris and Neil Chenhall. After some very close matches the team won 4/3. The winners were Glen Duncan, John Cullen, Steve Burris and Neil Chenhall.

This week div 8 has it's second game at home against Launceston. Like Div 3, Div 8 will be looking to even up the score at 2-2 before the break.

The other game in Div 8 was Launceston v Exter. Launceston won 6/1


The Ladders after round 3

Div 3
Round 3 saw Bridport continue their winning ways by defeating Exeter away from home. Greens Beach had a hard fought win against Quamby and Exeter remained win less. With three wins Bridport are in a very good position to win the season but they face Quamby this week. Quamby will be out to win this week and keep their chances alive for the rest of the season. Greens Beach hosts Exeter and will be looking to continue their home ground advantage. At this point Exeter have no chance of winning the pennant this year.

Briport 3-0 15/6
Greens Beach 2-1 11/10
Quamby 1-2 12/9
Exeter 0-3 4/18


Div 7
Quamby sits at the top of the ladder by the narrowest of margins. The dominant wins by Scottsdale in the past two rounds have them right behind us. This weeks match up of Quamby and Scottsdale will be a big game in the context of the season. If Quamby can win we will be in the box seat to win the Pennant. If Scottsdale win they will be in the box seat but, Quamby will still be in with a good chance. Mowbray also have a chance to win the Pennant but they are trailing in individual wins, this may hurt them later in the season. Tam O'Shanter look to have no chance to win the Pennant this year.

Quamby 2-1 14/7
Scottsdale 2-1 13/8
Mowbray 2-1 9/12
Tam O'Shanter 0-3 6/15


Div 8
After a big win by Launceston they take the top of the ladder this week. Quamby got it's first win for the year, now they need to keep winning. They have another home game this week against Launceston, that will be tough match. At this point the division is still up for grabs but time is running out fast. Both Quamby and Bridport need to win this week if they want a hope of winning the Pennant this year.

Launceston 2-1 12/9
Exeter 2-1 10/11
Bridport 1-2 11/10
Quamby 1-2 9/12


Undefeated players
After three rounds the club still has some undefeated players. They are John Cullen, Glenn Duncan and Colin Butterworth.

We also have some players that are undefeated for one or two matches. They are Paul Martin for two rounds and Adam Pawson, John Murray, Peter Gardner, Glenn Summers and Andy Barnes.

Also congratulations to Nic Bauld in getting his first win for the club.


Best of luck to all our teams this week!!
