“NEW TROPHY FOR SHEK-O GOLFERS

Mr J. F. Macgregor, retiring President of the Shek O County Club, has very kindly presented a handsome trophy to be competed for annually. It has been decided to play a 36 holes Medal Competition, on full handicap, the first 10 to qualify for match play “knock out” over 18 holes, on three quarters difference in handicaps, and the Finalists to play 36 holes. Partners and subsequent qualifiers are to be drawn and times allotted.

The Preliminary Rounds will be played on Sunday, June 28, and entries will close on Sunday, June 21. This competition is for men only. The entry list is posted up in the Club House.

Coronation Competitions

Members are reminded that the above competitions take place on Sunday, June 7. Entry lists are posted in the Club House.

There will be a Stableford Competition in the morning only, on 7/8 this handicap. No more than one stroke per hole may be taken but excess strokes due are to be added to the gross score.

In the afternoon, a Greensome Competition (Shanghai Foursome) will be held, 3/8ths combined handicaps. Entrants are to arrange own times and partners.

Both these competitions are open to Ladies, who play from their own tees and on their own handicaps.”
