18 Hole Competition
Janet Fires 44 Points in Stableford Victory
There was some impressive scoring in today’s Stableford competition, led by Janet Furnell, who produced an outstanding 44 points to claim victory. Shirley Newlove finished runner-up with an excellent 40 points. Balls went to Janet, Shirley, Kate Walker (37) and Barbara Ubrihien (35). Janet capped off her day by winning nearest the pin and recording the best second shot on the 18th hole.
9 Hole Competition
Despite last night’s shower, there was still plenty of run on the course for the Bega nine-hole women golfers. Maree Hergenhan won the Stableford with an impressive 20 points, with Sheila Schilling finishing runner-up.
Pam Crooks also had an eventful day when she found a ball she believed she had lost several years ago. It was lodged in an old apple gum tree to the right of the 13th fairway, and the tree had grown so completely around it that the ball could not be removed.
Coincidentally, another group playing in the 18-hole competition also spotted the ball that day.
Not to be outdone, the other photo shows Maria Marr’s ball lodged in one of the beautiful gum trees on the front nine.
Monday Report - 28th September
The Monday 9 hole ladies played the back course today. We all played very well, especially Gloria Clarke, with a magnificent 29 points! We hope Maree Hergenhan will be back with us next week for the Championship.

R&A Rules of Golf
Rule 18.2a
When Ball Is Lost or Out of Bounds
(1) When Ball Is Lost. A ball is lost if not found in three minutes after the player or their caddie begins to search for it. If a ball is found in that time but it is uncertain whether it is the player’s ball:
- The player must promptly attempt to identify the ball (see Rule 7.2) and is allowed a reasonable time to do so, even if that happens after the three-minute search time has ended.
- This includes a reasonable time to get to the ball if the player is not where the ball is found.
If the player does not identify their ball in that reasonable time, the ball is lost. (2) When Ball Is Out of Bounds. A ball at rest is out of bounds only when all of it is outside the boundary edge of the course. A ball is in bounds when any part of the ball:
- Lies on or touches the ground or anything else (such as any natural or artificial object) inside the boundary edge, or
- Is above the boundary edge or any other part of the course.
- A player may stand out of bounds to play a ball on the course.
