Dear Members,

Remember it’s off to Thana City ( http://www.thanacitygolf.com )for September, October and December. Check the events schedule for details.
Regarding our poll for a venue next year I thank you for taking the time to complete the survey. Myself and your committee are aiming to provide you with the result after our meeting this Wednesday.

Meinhardt Cup is next, 14 August at Burapha. 1st T Off 10:05. The format is stroke play for the Match Play (gross score per hole) and you should place your score card in our designated box on completion of your round, we will do the rest to calculate this years team winner.
Regarding our Stableford competition being held within the event, our handicap secretary will calculate your stableford points from your card and all those playing for the Londoner Golf Club will be eligible to win their respective flight prize, runner up prize or Over All trophy. Look forward to seeing you all there so as to support this event.

Thanks and regards
David Jeffers

For the latest Eclectic scores from Royal Lake side as at 10/07/10, click here.

Flight A

Andy Lazenby, back in 6th place last month, took 6 shots of his Lakeside eclectic this month, dropping to 65 and snatching the lead from Nick Toon by a 3-shot margin. Nick and Karen Holloway both remain on 68 where they have been joined by Eric Mallace, who took off two shots and nudges Karen out of third place on countback. Tony Jeffreys took one shot off to join Ray Harries and Dick Ackerman on 70, leading this trio on countback.


Flight B

Gerry wright took two shots off this week, and Arjan Buffing and Dennis Thomack one each to put all three on 69 and in that order on countback. Jim McHerron also improved by one to join Ying Neylon on 71 and claim 4th place on countback.

Flight C

Jubjang May retains the lead on 78, but a one-shot improvement by Nid Marsh sees her join Steve booth on 79 and take second place from him on countback. These two are joined by David O'Callaghan, courtesy of a two shot improvement. Behind these two Frank Berry and Hans-Gerhard Wagner remain unchanged on 80.

NOTE:

Due to remodelling work at Lakeside that is the final round of the eclectic there. However, we will begin a new eclectic at Thana City and combine the two for an overall eclectic score by a cunning formula. (Do not be surprised to see you handicap secretary winning all three flights  )

Next RLS event will be at THANA CITY! - 11 Sept 2010 at 11:30am

LGC LOCAL RULES

Lapsing of and reinstatement of lapsed handicaps.

Any member who has not competed in a Londoner event for a continuous six month period will have his/her handicap suspended. The handicap will be reinstated when the member competes in a qualifying event. The scores from the event in which the player has his/her handicap reinstated will be taken into account for the eclectic competition. We will also accept a returning members handicap should if they have completed in a qualifying event a current active handicap with the Bangkok Wanderers Golf club or British Club.

Measuring Device During a recent meeting your committee agreed on a local ruling as recommended by the R & A

Therefore for all Londoner Golf Club events then the ruling as written…..

A player may obtain distance information by using a device that measures distance only.
If, during a stipulated round a player uses a distance-measuring device that is designed to gauge or measure other conditions that might affect his play
(e.g. gradient, windspeed, temperature etc.), the player is in breach of rule 14-3 for which the penalty is disqualification, regardless of whether such additional function is actually used”

So…..

“Distance measuring devices may be used for the 2010 season and the sharing of any information relating exclusively to the distance obtained from such devises is permissible.
However, we do not encourage, indeed, we actively discourage, the sharing of such devices as we believe this will hold up play; therefore, if you wish to try such a device,
we urge you to be most considerate of others when so doing”.

Match Play

As always competitors should agree at the commencement of a match their preference to complete the match in the event of a draw.
You may consider;
  
Replay the game if time permits, replay the 1st hole you started on and continue from there, best number of putts on the putting green, or spin a coin. 

   

Londoners Golf News

Captains-Corner and other news

Dear Members

Your committee held a meeting on the 22nd of June and I am writing to inform you and keep you updated on what your committee is working on at present.  We also welcome on board John Griffiths who has kindly volunteered to aid us in our endeavors

Meinhardt Cup 14 August

This Charity completion is held at Burapah and is a 3 way team event (Londoners, Lighthouse and Wanderers) within the next few weeks a sign up email will be sent.  For those players who normally would attend our Lakeside event, our monthly stableford will also be held, running in conjunction with the Meinhardt Cup, this means even more chances to go away with something than just a handicap cut

This year a new scoring system is in place, all cards will be handed in and placed into the 3 teams individual boxes. We will then draw out a card from each box for each hole and the side with the winning score will gain the point for that hole, we will tally up at the end which team has the accumulated the most points from the 18 holes played and so have a winning team for the event.

Hapag Lloyd 28 August

This event is to be hosted by the Londoner Golf Club this year and we are in discussion with the British club regarding this event, as well as making a booking for the dinner and prize giving.
More to follow soon.

Club Championships 13-14 November

The committee has selected Pattana, for this year’s club champs and set the date for 13 and 14 November.

Green Fees Thb 1,350 and a fantastic room rate of Thb 1,100 for a single room or Thb 1300 for a double, Cart fees are Thb 500.

At these prices and at this venue we are sure this will be a full house so ensure you get your qualifying games in during the year.

Quick Pack pair’s competition 27 November

The Quick Pack Pacific pair’s competition will be held at Subapruek this year and again as the time draws nearer we will update you with further information.

Qualifying games

After a long deliberation and fierce opposition regarding the above your committee has voted on the above and so have reduced the number of qualifying games to 8 with immediate effect. Games played up at Soi Dao and or previous Club Champs counts as 2 games each. It is well noted we want to see worthy champions taking away the silverware and golfers that we can say “yes we have seen them supporting nearly all of our functions” and so on this note we will reconsider this ruling during the next 1 -2 years.

Courses for next year

Every year we go through some extensive negotiations in regards to timings and prices at our events to enable you to get more golf for your money. This year is no exception, we will always look as Lakeside and Riverside as the two Londoner courses however we are in negotiation with the following courses; Lakewood, Royal Lad Krabang, Subhapruek, Kiarti Thani and Green Valley, watch this space

Sponsorship

We thank Augusto Romei, his family and Quick Pack Pacific for the generosity in sponsoring the runners up trophies at each of our events and I am sure when you get a chance you may mention so as well.  Eric Mallace of Jotun Paints who sponsors the Jotun 20/20, which is starting to bubble away nicely.

Arjan Buffing has come forward and kindly offered for his company Win-Win (Asia) Co. Ltd to sponsor a Masters completion to be played over 2 days. At this time we are considering end Jan for the 1st game and our 1st game in February to complete the event.

These sponsors offer the LGC a chance to ensure that our bigger events (Soi Dao, Club Champs and Christmas Dinner) that the costs are kept to a minimum where possible, and in regards to the Christmas Dinner remain free.

Lastly but not least 2 other members have agreed sponsorship of technical prizes, they will provide the prize and also choose the hole, in return they will get advertising on our website and obviously mentioned when we can, so look out for some new prizes at the coming events

Enjoy your golfing with us and please if you have any suggestions or comments, kindly approach any of us so as to help you and us to enjoy our golf and each other’s company.
