Welcome to the new year. SGC’s prime revelry of the year is upon us, the opening of this year’s summer favorite past time – playing golf. Yes, this is golf and play gets under way in a week. Golf’s unique handicapping system allows people of different abilities to play and compete together. Playing with class is still imperative, but increasingly the need to intermingle nicely with fellow members most specially with new members in a relaxed environment is our number one priority. What is to expect for this year’s campaign for everyone? Not easy to contend to prestigious awards year after year what more winning it. So, I’d say let me take you back a year about those members who exceled expectations and are defending this year:

Ricky Reyes: POY & MIP TROPHY – Will launch his defense of two titles this year; nearly tripled-up by narrow missing SPOY as well.

 

Rey Plaza: SPOY TROPHY – Another elderly stateman who is a late bloomer but getting to be an up-and-comer; deservingly claiming a major award.

 

Manny Chea: Best Gross Trophy – When you are a marquee player, you are a marquee player.

What was the most memorable storyline from the summer golf news last year? GTA Interleague Tournament. SGC finally winning the Gemini Cup. Without a doubt SGC is not holding back and more relaxed this year ready to defend. Yeah, Baby! You bet. Per say as individual, how would you assess your year? Was your added experience whetted your appetite for this year campaign? We all have priorities of our own. Sunday games are just to get winded away from home and a chance of mixing it up with people other than your family. Exercising while socializing. Enjoying a relaxing game of golf, with much longer periods of walking around beautiful landscapes. Have you offered yourself a new expectancy this year about performing better than last year? Well, here we are, summer is at the doorstep. Good to look back last season and learn from experience on how to improve every area of your game. For most players this zone of thinking is not so difficult to fathom – why can’t you show these guys you are much improved player this year?
 

Food for thought: Some members never quite made it to winning any awards but let me try saying this. Their behind the scene effort was just as importantly noteworthy. Without them, SGC could never righted the ship in anyways or form. SGC thanks them for their continued support. Cheers!

See you at your best next week.
