Bye Bonny Hills Beach Hotel

Bonny Hills Beach Hotel Social Golf.

A Single Stroke competition was held at Wauchope last Sunday and, unfortunately, numbers were low due to illness and Olympicitis.

Geoff Irvin began his round by “laying-up” on the first hole. A 50 metre shot was a very unusual beginning for Geoff. He followed that on the 2nd with a booming drive which left him with a wedge shot onto the green (par 5). On the 14th hole he won the Men’s Longest Drive by a long margin.

While his chipping and putting were inconsistent, his overall play was good enough for him to win the event on the day. Geoff won on a count back from David Middlebrook, who finished with a 7, 5 and 7 to throw away his earlier good play. They had a net 60 for the 15 holes. David was seen to “accidently” lose his grip on his pitching wedge on the 15th hole after completing his shot over the bunker. The pitiching wedge flew approximately 15 metres towards the pin; David was overhead to mumble something about losing his grip. The rest of the group was well alert to who was losing their grip. I wonder what the handicapper has to say about that.

Carol Middlebrook did well with a net 62 to finish 3rd after missing several events recently. Tom Scrine had several senior moments during his round with his mind seemingly elsewhere on occasions. After the 4th hole, he imagined he’d just finished the 7th and headed toward the 8th tee. Tom drove very well all-round, but his putting let him down somewhat. Nevertheless, he was able to finish his round well and get himself home and thoughtfully bring his “carer” to the pub for lunch. While Roger Miles may have won the Bradman award, he certainly supplied a never-ending number of wisecracks to keep the small group continually amused.

The next event on the 1st of September is the bus trip to Taree. The bus will leave the Bonny Hills Beach Hotel at 6.30am sharp. All those interested in attending should place their name on the board at the pub.

We are out but not without a good fight, hearts were breaking but not from the loss but from pride for our mighty under 11’s. We are all so proud of our boys you all played so well. Our all star team was legend Lachie Hudson, look out Lachie Hayman, jaguar Jarrod, jet James, jack hammer Josh O’D, jugular Josh K, jungle Jarmyn, magnet Matt, mad Marcus, magic McKenzie, awesome Alex, zig-zag Zack, torpedo Tom, storm Scott, razor Riley and hurricane Harry (out this game). It has been a privilege to spend Saturday nights writing about you boys, thanks for the fun. A big thanks to mums, dads, nans, pops for cheering on the boys but most of all a big, big thanks to Shane and Chris for your time, knowledge and hard work spent on this team, your love for the game showed each week in each of the boys. Bring on 2009 it’s ours.

Under 7’s

We travelled to Port Macquarie on Sunday for our final day of footy for the year to compete in a gala day. What can I say our boys were simply outstanding in all three games we played they put in 100 per cent effort. I would like to say thanks to Brad, Thomas, Ike, Davy, Blake, Ben, Brent, Charlie and Casey Dylan and Kade from under 6’s for a tremendous year of footy. Also to Mark and Rodney for their help and to the parents for their support throughout the year, thanks very much. We have one final day together, presentation day.

Our August comp was held last weekend 16 and 17. Once again, as per usual comp weekends, boisterous conditions the norm of the day. What else could one expect, to greet us.

Thank you one and all where seven anglers presented eight species for 22 fish to weighmaster Geoff Boese and recorder Dick Spencer. “Robbo’s Quinnie Legend” conquered the “Wild Blue” outside where Mr President, Ray Robinson, much to his credit, had five species for nine fish of three each of snapper to .765 x 6, sand flathead to .785kg, one each of bonito at .885kg, silver trevally at .300kg and a sweep – top show Ray plus a few extra bonus points.

Camden Haven Redbacks Junior Soccer

U/10 C H Ray White R/E V Port United Dragons

Congratulations Redbacks!! You dug deep and came away with the 2-1 win. Well done. You showed good team support and talked to each other. Even though it was nil all at half time and then in the 2nd half when it was looking like a 1-1 draw you all never gave up and then showed confidence and called for the ball and had consistent play. All the family and friends supporting from the sideline were so proud. We even noticed the coach jump in the air with excitement as well as a sign of relief when the full time whistle blew. Give yourselves a rap for the win! Don’t forget there is still training on Wednesday. Go Reds!

LUSC YD1 v MVR

First qualifying semi, and Rangers took it to us for the first five minutes. From there on it was all the Redbacks. Pressure was rewarded when a shot on goal by Trump was misshit but fell to Huck who was sharp enough to place it inside the near post. It was soon two when Huck sent in a low hard ‘specky’ which a MVR defender could only rifle into his own net. Nathan Laws eagerness found him one-on-one with the keeper he struck the post but his second chance found the net, 3 nil capped off a brilliant first half. In the second half we fell off our game quite a bit mainly due to many substitutions and a massive foul count against us. Some of them well what can you say, eventually MVR were awarded a dottie, keeper Westy got a glove to it but could not keep it out 3-1 final score. We now get a weeks rest and then one win away from making the big one. Go you Reds. See you at training.

Camden Haven Laundry

Under 13 Girls v South West Rocks

Sudden death semi, unfortunately it was us going down by just one nil. An early goal rattled us and from there on we looked like the better side however, we could not capitalize on our many opportunities. Bad luck girls that’s the way it goes. Anyway thanks to our sponsors, mums and dads and of course you the team who kept us entertained all season. The memories are all there some good, some bad but who remembers the bad ones. Thanks Ronnie. See you all at the presentation. Stay off the computers and keep that ball at your feet, next season is just around the corner.

Go you Redbacks.

U/8 CH Blue Widders Consultancy v Camden Haven Black

Camden Haven Blue played Camden Haven Black in a game that turned out to be a hard fought battle. Both teams had chances in the first half with the Blues first to score with Jack intercepting a goal kick and banging it back past the keeper. With good control and passing from Michael, this led to Jeb having a few close shots and Harrison was strong at the back with some good tackles. Camden Haven Black equalled the score towards the end of the first half from a corner which bounced off two players and went in. The second half was much like the first with both teams having several chances at scoring. Tyron continued his good form of late with solid tackles and good passing. Josh and Tim chased well in the second half but Camden Haven Black got the win with a well taken free kick in front of goals. Well done both teams with a good hard match. There is only one game left. See you all at training.
