Unstoppable!!

Unstoppable!!

Well done to our Ladies Division 1 team who have won an amazing 5th Pennant in a row!
Heading into the final at Morwell GC against a strong Trafalgar team, the ladies were never headed and won 5-0.  In the words of the late Richie Benaud – “Marvellous effort that!”
Our Division 2 girls came up against a Traralgon team who were keen to reverse the scoreline from the week before and did so 3 1/2 – 1 1/2.  Still a great effort ladies

Hands up if your a winner! Pictured are Deb Corstorphin, Janine Williams, Kerri Ahearn, Joy Marriott, Jo De Jong & Kylie Golding Our Division 2 Runners Up – Kaye Rollinson, Simone Herbel, Sandy Heenan, Barb Davidson, Pam Majak & Belinda Best
