<strong>State</strong> <strong>Mines</strong>, 8 th <strong>June</strong> <strong>2019</strong>- Captains Report<br />
Our change of date and making the Sate <strong>Mines</strong> game a afternoon field paid dividends.<br />
Sunny reasonably warm day, a contrast to the rain and cold. My fourball consisted of<br />
the long-standing club captain, 1) Jan Delport, and an interesting day was spent with<br />
him showing us the changes to course that have taken place in the last year, 2) Brian<br />
Rees our sponsor for the (in a personal capacity) and 3) NJVC Neill Malherbe. It really<br />
does make one very proud to be part of an organisation that has people like Brian Rees<br />
as a member. A true gentleman that carries <strong>Nomads</strong> in his heart. He is a pleasure to play<br />
with and could quite easily be used as an example of what we stand for. Thank you Brian.<br />
A duty I enjoy as captain is the handing out of awards to members. It was great giving<br />
Mike Lekhuleni and Dave Diesel their 200 game badges. Well done gentlemen. On a sad<br />
note, having to bid long time national sponsor and Easterns member Phil Michaux, farewell<br />
was disappointing. However Phil is transferring to Southern Cape and is not lost to<br />
<strong>Nomads</strong>. I don’t have enough space here to extoll the virtues of what Phil has done for<br />
<strong>Nomads</strong> but we wish him and his family many happy years in Knysna..<br />
Congratulations to all the winners on the day, putting on those greens was like playing<br />
with mercury.<br />
Thank you to our ladies, Terry and Matthew, as usual, everything ran like clockwork. I<br />
believe Matt has learnt quite a bit from his experience and will be putting it to good use<br />
with SAMSON in the future. Good luck to the guys playing the Diamond Challenge<br />
against Botswana on the 6 th and 7 th July at Sun City.<br />
Next game is Ebotse on 14 th July AM so dress warmly. Please diarise the Memorial day<br />
at Pollak Park a week later.
We wish to Thank our National Sponsors

Please can I ask you all to enter and pay timeously, as I will be running<br />
