The 2017 Team Play Championship Tournament held at Elkhorn Golf Club in Stockton on August 7-8 was great success.  There were 14 teams that competed for the trophy.  Despite the recent heat temperatures over 100 degrees in the valley recently, they managed to get a below 100 degree temperature day which was especially helpful with a 1:00 start time the first day.  Final scores were closely packed together with single strokes defining their final placement. The course was tough and the "field" was strong, in addition to having the largest number of teams competing this year! 

The winner of the trophy was the Castle Oaks Swingers. Congratulations to Anni Rose, Cindy Koyle, Glenda Hofstetter and Yvonne Funderburg with a combined score of 114.  This was the first time that this club sent teams to the Team Play tournament.

The second place team was from Buchanan Fields consisting of Bernie Garrison, Lorraine Koven, Marlene Roberts, and Jean Eissner with a combined score of 116.  And coming in third were the Modesto Muni Niners with Elma Savage, Sylvia Nimphius, Sandy Dicker and Shirley Jean Keyser with a score of 119.  Congratulations to all who competed.
