A Yellow Peril Competition is when a team have one yellow ball which is passed in strict rotation between all the players on different holes which has to count with the best score of the other players. Working out who would have shots on the hole when in possession of the yellow ball comes into the competition strategy.
Newly installed Outlane Junior Captain Cameron West led his team to a 1 point victory from last years Junior Captains team led by Bryn Jenkinson in the Yellow Peril competition. Cameron's team of his father Stuart West, Steve Cooper and John Stephenson had a total of 88 points which included a run of 20 points in three consecutive holes from the 11th which obviously helped their victory but also gave them momentum on the the final holes.
The winning combination worked out their order of play perfectly with nothing less than 4 points on any hole which is unusual as having possession of the yellow ball can result in no points to add to the best other ball.
Last years junior captain Bryn Jenkinson included his grandfather Granville Jenkinson, Gordon Drysdale and last years club captain Peter Lawrence Brown in his team but just came up 1 point short to finish runners-up but they had something to celebrate when the latter player HOLED in ONE on the 16th hole.
This is the second hole-in-one in consecutive competitions and the club recognize this feat with a small engraved plaque which goes on display in the clubhouse lounge pelmet.
