Sharjah, Al Ain, Dubai Mini Tournament – and last minute details for the Beach Party!

Thursday, November 12th, 2009

As you know we have a mini tournament running tomorrow between ourselves, Dubai, Sharjah and Al Ain.
The details of the day’s events are as follows:

Location: American International School (29th Street).
Start: 4:00 pm; Time: 7:00 pm.

Could we ask everyone, both girls and guys, to be at the pitch by 3:45 pm please?

Dubai Men’s are only bringing 1 team but will play against us in 2 matches as we have enough numbers for 2 teams.

In the girl’s tournament there will be 5 teams in total – Abu Dhabi (x2), Dubai, Sharjah and Al Ain. Every team is guaranteed 2 games with a possibility of a third – time permitting of course.

There will also be an inter club juvenile’s game early in the evening. If there are any of you out there who are not players but who would like to come down to support the games that would be very much appreciated – all are welcome!

Looking forward to seeing everyone at the games!

– and a few quick details for tomorrow night’s (Nov 13th) beach party: -

Gates open at 9:00 pm.
You will need your ticket and a valid form of ID to gain entry to The Club.
Food will be served from 10:00 pm onwards.
Beach Wear essential.

Golf Groupings, Al Ain, Friday 16th Oct

Tuesday, October 13th, 2009

Golf PairingsHere are the groupings for Friday’s golf outing in Al Ain. Just a few points:

  • For those of you who said you’d be taking the bus we will be leaving at 10:30 am Friday morning from outside Choueifat School (2nd Street and 15th Street).
  • The cost of the round will be AED 330 which includes green fees, buggy and range balls.
  • Golf clubs can be hired on the day but try to borrow a set if you can to save on expense.
  • We will be playing a Scramble format – everybody tees off, choose the best drive, everybody plays from that spot and so on so forth. This process is repeated for every shot until the hole is completed.
  • Every player must contribute 2 drives to their team (excluding par 3’s).
  • There will be a “Nearest the Pin” and “Longest Drive” competition.
  • Please make sure you have a collared t-shirt and, if not golf shoes, runners with a flat sole.
  • We will stay on after for a few hours for presentation of prizes, etc.
  • The bus should be back in Abu Dhabi around 10:30/11 o’clock Friday night.

Guys there’s no pulling out at this stage. If you can’t make it you will need to find someone to fill your spot otherwise you will still have to pay the AED 330.

My apologies but Al Ain are expecting 24 players and as such we have to pay for 24 people.  See you all on Friday!

Golf Outing to Al Ain

Wednesday, February 18th, 2009

Hi there,

Our next golf outing is scheduled for Friday, February 27th in Al Ain Golf Club.

The cost of the golf will be AED 280 for 18 holes. That includes your round of golf, golf cart and range balls beforehand. We will play our usual scramble format so all levels are welcome.

A bus will be organized to take us to and from Al Ain on the day and I’m sure there will be time for a few drinks before, during and after the golf.

If you are interested in playing please let me know by either sending me an e-mail at declan.madden@hct.ac.ae or by sending me a text on 050 3236804.

Cheers, Declan
