The Third Annual Just For Fun Golf Tournament was held February 23, 2008 at the Consejo Shores Golf Course. 44 residents of Consejo Shores and the surrounding communities came out to play for fun and prizes.
The players gathered at 2:30 on a beautiful Saturday afternoon to hear the tournament rules:
Match Play -
Two person teams compete to win each hole. The team with the fewest strokes wins that hold. Winning team receives 2 point for the hole, 1 point is awarded each team in the event of a tie. No point are awarded to the loosing team. The team with the highest point total wins the Match Play.
Stroke Play
Record your team strokes. The team with the lowest total strokes wins the round.
Best Ball
Each team member drives from the tee. Choose the better ball and pick up the other. Both team mates play from the spot of the better ball. Play from the spot of the better ball on each stroke.
Shotgun Start
At 3:00 PM, 28 players teed off from seven different holes for the Shotgun start and an afternoon of fun. Unfortunately, no one has come forth with photos of the actual play, so we will have to jump right to the post play activities.
Awards and Refreshments
As the teams completed the course, people began to gather at Rena Edgley's "19th Hole" for food and refreshments. Once everyone was there, we observed a moment of silence in memory of Derik Edgley and last year's champion Muffie Curtis, both of whom passed away this past year. Soon, everyone had a drink in hand and food on their plate as we waited for the announcement of the various winners.
