WEATHER GREAT FOR GOLF WEEK
\nThe weather was perfect for all three days of play of the 2022 Mclean Care New England Veterans \u2018Week of Golf\u2019 hosted by Inverell Veteran Golfers.
\nAll three days were played under clear skies and with the course in great condition. The players had nothing but praise for the quality of the greens, which are a credit to head green keeper, Ben Watling.
\nWhile player numbers were down a little this year because of COVID and floods, 109 hit off on Tuesday. More than a third of the players were 75 years or over.
\nMen and lady golfers from Hervey Bay and Bargara in Queensland, Wollongong, Tathra, Forbes in New South Wales and Wodonga in Victoria journeyed to Inverell and stayed for
\nthe week to play in the tournament. The organizing committee could not be any happier with the week as it is a big boost to the town\u2019s economy as well as the golf club.
\n\u00a0The 36 hole championship was keenly contested over Tuesday and Thursday while players-enjoyed a relaxing 2-ball round on Friday before players and partners attended the Presentation Luncheon in the afternoon.<\/p>\n

Tournament Director Jim Shadlow said \u201cwe had thirty-two players visiting for the first time and many stated \u201cwhat a great town. We are blown away by the towns presentation,
\nfriendliness and attractions.\u201d Mr Shadlow praised the response from local business houses to sponsor the event and this helped to make it a tremendous success. The visitors were outspoken in their praise for the tournament and town, and vowed to return when a similar event is staged next.
\nThe New England Veteran\u2019s week of Golf got under way in Inverell on Tuesday under Inverell\u2019s typical, beautiful autumn conditions. A cloudless sky, little to no breeze and temperatures rising to 24 degrees made it ideal for golf. Local player, Steve Kent, had an outstanding day to finish with 42 points, 5 points clear of the next best score in the opening day today. Top scorer for the women was Jenni Holland from Ocean Shores with 36 points. The top score in each of the women\u2019s divisions were – Div 1 – Jenni Holland and Div 2 – Chris Noonan from Aberdeen
\nThe best in the men\u2019s divisions were Div 1 – Steve Kent, Div 2 – Ross Bartlett from Muree and Graham Moore from Inverell, Div 3 \u2013 Ross Tutt from Inverell.
\nToday was the start of two individual daily stablefords which continue Thursday. The two days will also be combined to determine the winner of the NSW veteran\u2019s sponsored 36-hole event. Friday will be a 2-ball best ball, hitting off at 8:30. It will be followed by lunch and presentation.<\/p>\n

Local golfer, Steve Kent, took out the men\u2019s division of the New South Wales Veteran Golfers Association Trophy for the New England District. Jenni Holland from Ocean Shores won the women\u2019s section. The trophy was played for over 36 holes on Tuesday and Thursday.
\nAnother local, Kevin Campbell, produced the best score for Thursday while Julie Berg from Sydney was best for the women
\nThe best results on Thursday for each division were.
\nIn men\u2019s
\nDivision 1 – Steve Kent, Graeme Hunt and Larry Finney
\nDivision 2 \u2013 Kevin Campbell and Graham Moore
\nDivision 3 \u2013 Phillip Lumby, Noel Gray and Ray Clegg
\nIn the women\u2019s
\nDivision 1 \u2013 Julie Berg and Lee Daley
\nDivision 2 \u2013 Jackie Wheeler and Cathy Harrison
\nThe players took to the course for a 4-ball-best-ball Friday and this was followed by a lunch and presentation.
\nRoss Bartlett, looking around the clubhouse at all the other elderly players sitting socialising at the end of the day said to me \u201cYou realise that this is Gods waiting room\u201d.<\/p>\n
