This can only mean one thing at Nelson Bay Golf Club. The Ladies’ Xmas Party.

Playing in teams of four, with 3 clubs and a putter, the Ladies took to the course in all manner of festive attire.

The prize for best outfits was hotly contested by the Xmas Puds (no inference intended) and the Snowmen with the Snowmen winning by a nose! Well done Ladies for setting the tone for the Christmas Season.

Highlights of the week:

Congratulations to:

-David Diemar, scoring an Eagle on the Par 5, 27th hole in Monday’s Vets Comp.

-Frank Ward

-Ricky O’Shannessy, scoring an Eagles Nest on the Par 5, 431 metres, 27th in Saturday’s Mens Comp.
