KLOGS March Game – 2026

18th March 2026 at Tropicana Golf & Country Resort (E1/E2)

The Day’s Play

We had perfect golfing weather at the excellent Tropicana where 5 flights all teed from tee box 1. Conditions were cool but warmed up considerably for the back nine. Buggy on track for all the holes didn’t help matters. Play was a little slow at times with “putt out” being the order of the day not to mention wayward shots making the flight team more scattered than stars in the milky way.

Before play, each player was given a box of Srixon soft feel golf balls. This was followed by a pre-game briefing by El Prez to play well, putt out, and always hand the ball marker to the caddy.

Lunch was taken at Pantai Seafood Restaurant, where we had a turnout of sixteen players. Food was excellent comprising of seafood soup, mushroom salad, bbq pork ribs, black pepper beef, spicy chicken nuggets and prawn fried rice. The food was enjoyed with beers and red wine. Chez welcomed our guests, Peter Marsh (G3) Ken Wormington (G2) and Hans Paalman (G2).

Thanks again to Sigi and Ricardo for the golf balls and red wine – always appreciated guys.

Iain provided an update on our colleagues Andrew and Richard. Andrew, back at home, broken fibula which has been pinned using plate already in his leg. Fractures also to heel and ankle which require wearing of a boot. No pressure on the foot for at least a month. Richard is still in hospital making progress, no visitors at the moment. Best wishes for speedy recoveries guys.
