Confused yet? Don’t be – its really quite simple. To put it as simply as possible – a blog is a type of website that is usually arranged in chronological order from the most recent ‘post’ (or entry) at the top of the main page to the older entries towards the bottom.
The blog lists information in categories to make it easier for you to find out what is important.
All posts will appear on the front page to show you whats new in the Colonial. but you can drill down using the categories or dates for specific information on events, special offers, birthdays, results and much more.
Below is a simple video that describes what happens and the overall uses.
Well done to the team of Paul Burnell and Scott McLean who have become the 2010 Foursomes Champions. The boys fired a sensational 79 off the stick to claim victory on a count back from Jim Kaliviotis & Phil Snow. The Nett event saw Jon Palk & Jeff Quick claim victory with a 70 just in front of Mick Vanitallie & Brett Mostyn on 70.5.
Well done to all winners.
A reminder that the Club Championships are not to far away with the first round on Saturday 31st July.
What is the status of saliva (a) on the fairway (b) on the green ?
Disgusting it may be but it happens. Decision 25/6 states :-
“In equity (Rule 1-4), saliva may be treated as either an abnormal groundcondition (Rule 25-1) OR as a loose impediment (Rule 23-1), at the option of the player.”
So you may take relief if it interferes with your stance or swing on the fairway (i.e. take a drop within 1 club length of the nearest point of relief or move it as a loose impediment). On the green you may also take relief if it interferes with the line of your putt.

Welcome to the first edition Blog Newsletter. From a personal perspective, I am passionate about our team of staff and our Golf Course but frustrated by not being able to provide everyone with regular updated information. The more I learn and understand about new technology the more inspired I become about the urgency of making important interesting information on our Golf Course available to everyone.
At this critical turning point in our evolution we all need to raise our awareness and the Blog newsletter is dedicated to provide some of the lesser known but important snippets of information and well as let everyone know just what we have on offer on a week to week basis at The Colonial.
