It feels like a matter of copying and pasting previous results when Dylan Bell wins yet a monthly medal out on the golf course. Thirty-six A graders tried to take the title away from him during Saturday's stroke competition, sponsored by Hunts Fuel, but Dylan's one over the card, 73 off the stick, kept him atop the leaderboard. Michael Clough was his nearest rival shooting 74 off the stick. In B grade a countback was required to settle the difference, where David Batterbury just edged past Peter Leahy, both men shooting 87 off the stick. Two shots separated first and second in C Grade where Brad Giles took the honours after shooting 91 off the stick with Haydon Manning coming in second.

Eleven ladies took part in Saturday's Stableford competition where Reeta Devi stood atop of her peers with 35 points to her name. Kay Jaensch was her closest competitor with 34 points. Val Sharrad, Carolyn Cocks and Helen George were all three shots further afield.

Stableford was also the competition for the ladies on Thursday where seventeen women took to the course. Liz Weatherspoon stepped out from her role of Secretary to show that she still can be competitive, topping the leaderboard with 35 points. Carolyn Cocks was close behind her with 34 points with Elaine Pierik a further two shots behind.

Hunts Fuel sponsored the men's Wednesday Stableford competition where sixty-six competitors fought it out. Michael Hegarty top scored in A grade with 40 points. Craig Reidy was close behind him with 39 points. Darryl Scharfe was victorious in B Grade with 36 points, 3 clear of Juri Berzins who put together a score of 33.  40 points secured the C grade win for Grant Heidenreich, four shots clear of Wayne Smith.
