Trial of Lottery Booking - Virtual Draw for members

Due to the current difficulties in booking a game, the Board has decided to trial the lottery booking system. We know any system isn't going to suit everyone but we think that this is the fairest way for members to book a comp time. 

This new 'Lottery' feature for the booking system will be trialed for Competitions in July from Thursday the 25th of June for the Saturday the 4th of July timesheet and apply to all timesheets in July.

Members will now join the draw within 30 minutes of timesheet opening and be allocated a ticket with a position number in a virtual queue when the countdown timer reaches zero. Check the images below.

The 'Lottery' will send the first 5 members into the timesheet to make a booking, all others will get a ticket in the queue to enter the timesheet when those ahead have completed their booking.  This may add 15 to 20 seconds to the booking experience for those not in the first 5.

The benefits of the 'Lottery' are

  • No more fastest click wins
  • Your device or internet speed will not affect your entry in the draw
  • Random draw for all
  • Fairer for all as resembles a traditional members draw here at the club
  • There's less chance you will be rejected with 'Row Taken'

How it Works

1. Member enters draw

With hard work by our contractors and staff during the Clubhouse Covid-19 closure, Wednesday saw the opening of our NEW Halfway Bar and the Main Bar sporting a renovated service bar, now with 12 Beers on tap! The Halfway bar has all your favorites while the Main Bar shows off the new additions of James Squire Broken Shackles Larger, Furphy Draught, Kosciusko Pale Ale and White Rabbit Dark Ale.

It was with great excitement the new lines in the now fully renovated Keg Room were started on Tuesday evening to bring the beers on line for the opening of the bars - a great job by "Beers R Us" and many of our other staff & members. Thanks all!

Vet's News

Gentlemen, welcome back.  I believe we are all very excited to be playing on Mondays once again.  As I write this News, the sheet for 22nd June is full with 120 players and it has been a long, long time since we have seen that number at a Vets competition.  We also have 5 on the waiting list, so I would urge those who are unsure as to whether they will be able to play or not, to give consideration as soon as you can so that in the event of you being unable to play, those on the waiting list will receive ample notice that they have a playing time.

You will have noticed that for the time being, we are able to play every Monday rather than every fortnight.  This may apply for approximately 6 weeks, however the Board will let us know when we will be reverting back to our normal playing schedule.  Ron Duffy has asked me to let you all know that during the period when we are playing each Monday, occasionally we may have to share the course with ground staff.  With our normal playing schedule, on the Mondays when we don't play, ground staff carry out necessary course maintenance.  Therefore, should you happen to encounter ground staff during your round, please be patient.  They are the ones who keep our course in such excellent condition.

Your Committee wishes to endorse the recent request made by the Club Captain that Members playing weekly in both the Vets and Wednesday Competitions, refrain from playing the weekend  Competitions, therefore leaving spaces for those members who work during the week and are only able to play at the weekend.  We have been informed that there are at least 60 members booked for the 22nd June Monday Vets game, who will likely play Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday.  Until Covid-19 is behind us, would you please consider those Members who are missing out each week.  

Thank you.

Scott Beatty - Captain
