Over the weekend, the Waipukurau Golf Club hosted a zone round of the Coronation Cup, a Hawke’s Bay-wide inter-club competition.
The zone round saw Waipukurau/Waipawa, Takapau, Hastings and Porangahau play each other in teams of 12 over three rounds on Saturday and Sunday.
Results:
Round one - Waipukurau/Waipawa defeated Hastings - Porangahau defeated Takapau.
Round two – Waipukurau/Waipawa defeated Porangahau - Takapau defeated Hastings.
Round three – Takapau defeated Waipukurau - Hastings defeated Porangahau.
Final points: Waipukurau/Waipawa four points, Takapau four points, Porangahau two points and Hastings two points.
The winner of the zone round was then decided on a ‘countback’ between Waipukurau/Waipawa and Takapau, with Waipukurau/Waipawa winning with 21 and a half games to Takapau’s 17 wins.
The Waipukurau/Waipawa team now go on to the Coronation Cup finals, which will be played over three rounds at Dannevirke Golf Club at the end of October.
