Winners were celebrated as the Niagara-on-the-Lake Golf Club’s men’s and women’s leagues wrapped up their seasons last week.
For the Thursday men’s league, the year-end banquet is a seasonal highlight – not for the golf, but for the prize table.
There was some golf played at the finale, however, and the foursome of Oleh Hrycko, Harry Huizer, Jim Meszaros and John Reynolds won the day.
Seasonal winners were crowned in several categories.
Top of the board, winning the low gross title seven times each, were Ricky Watson and James Grigjanis-Meusel, the 2022 and 2021 men’s open champs respectively.
Gerry Shelly was the Stableford scoring champ, with five wins. Watson (with 12) and Reynolds (10) were tops in skins.
Ben Berti was named long drive champ and closest to pin winners were Brian MacIntyre (#4) and McMacken (#9). The season-long putting contest winner was Terry Catney.
In team play over the season, there was a rare tie, with two groups accumulating 1,783 points.
Members of the Natural Hazards were: Randy Busbridge, Bruce Dixon, Steve Ferley, Jack Hanna, Mike Henry, Daryl McCrossan, Doug McCulloch, Jim McMacken, Drew Porter, Gerry Shelly, Earl Shore and Warren Tutton.
The Far From Par team was comprised of: Peter Danakis, Greg Fedoryn, John Foreman, Oleh Hrycko, Johnson Hu, Brian MacIntyre, Bernard Marlow, Jim Meszaros, John Reynolds, John Thomson and Glenn Young.
The Tuesday morning nine and 18 hole women’s leagues teamed up for the Queen’s Jubilee Closing Game and Breakfast.
