Yesterday saw the conclusion of our 2012 Summer Pennant series with Hill Top victorious over Ky Valley View 4 /1 in Section 1 and Tallygaroopna defeated Shepparton by the same margin in Section 2.

I would like to thank all participating teams and clubs that made their courses available for the series and foir those volunteers at each host club for getting results to me promptly.

We now look forward to our Winter pennant season in June / July and other GV events along the way.

As unfortunately I was not able to attend yesterday's final I would appreciate if anyone has any team photo's they can email them to me a gdevine@spcardmona.com.au and I will post them on the website.

Regards,

Geoff Devine

 Finalists have been decided in this years summer pennant competition with Hill Top & Ky Valley View doing battle in Section 1 and in Section 2 Tallygaroopna go head to head with Shepparton.

Section 1 has been closely contested all season and thus a winner from this match would be hard to pick however in Section 2 Tallygaroopna have been dominant all season andd thus they would be going in as warm favourites.

Play begins with Section 1 at 8:15 am and Section 2 will follow at 9:00am.

Good luck to all teams involved.
