Yadikya's Do It for Charity

As has been the case for many years, the Yadikya's think not only about themselves, but also of those in need of our help. This month the Yadikya's have been well represented at several charity golf tournaments. Many Yads participated in the Knights of Columbus tournament held at San Dimas to help the KoC develop sufficient funds to help those less fortunate during the Christmas season. Also, the Hollywood High School tournament is being played this week at California Country Club to benefit the athletic program of the Hollywood High School.

Where the Yadikya's see a place that they can help, they will do what they can to provide support. Thanks to all of the Yadikya's that have helped themselves, their club, and others during the past golf season.

Yadikya 2010-22 Season Final Results

The Yadikya season finished on June 25, 2011 with the following results. Congratulations to everyone who participated and a special congratulations to our top ten performers this year. As you can see from the statistics, there is a great benefit to playing regularly.

Our end of year party will take place at Mi Casita in Verdugo Hills on July 2, 2011. At that time, not only will the Yadikya's celebrate with the awarding of the Yadikya Cup (the most highly coveted award in the world of golf) other less substantial trophies and prizes, but also great comraderie will be shared as always. Please plan to attend following our first round of the new season at Altadena Golf Course. Directions have been provided by our Secretary, Rich T, but if you have lost them, either attend the round of golf next Saturday morning or contact Rich or Chuck.

Group Golfer, California Offers

Yadikya golfers, who are not yet aware of the new Group Golfer opportunities online, may find this web site very interesting and worth visiting. Group Golfer has been working in Michigan for sometime to rave reviews. Now they are in the Southern California area, as well. Joining Group Goler is free and it is your choice whether to pay up front to play some really excellent courses. Every several days I am finding new options being made available.

I recently purchased two rounds of golf at Sterling Hills in Camarillo for $32 each, including golf cart and driving range. As a senior, I get a great rate there normally, it is $45, but this Group Golfer offer was even better. If I take a friend who is not a senior, I am saving my friend even more. (Of course a good friend will pay me back. I'll get back to you on that one.)

So, we are now sharing this web site with you, since Yadikya's are such great, generous, and fun golfers. Use it if you wish, but you should at least visit the site when you can. (Group Golfer)

End of Calendar Year Results for Weekly Play

Here are the latest results for Yadikya's as we come to the end of another great calendar year. Remember the more you play the more points you accumulate. Those end of season Yadikya trophies are worth all of the golf and friendship that you find on Saturday mornings at Alta Dena Golf Course. Good luck everyone.

Yadikya's Play in the Rain and Share Christmas Cheer

Season's Greetings to all you Yadikya Golfers and Friends,

In case you were wondering about today's play, yes there were seven brave souls (golfers) that went out in the rain and wind, and played nine holes. Should I write "congratulations" to those individuals or as Jay Leno stated to Hugh Grant,"what were you thinking?" Chuck, John, Mike Acosta, Ron, Rich Leon, Al B., and Gordy. They played "best ball" today, and the lucky winners were: Gordy, Rich, and Al.

I guess most of us are not the "die hard" golfers we thought we were. I dropped by to say hello, and in case you all were wondering we gave out the Holiday gifts to all the hard working staff at Altadena. They were all very appreciative,and also send their best for the holiday Season. I'm not sure exactly when play will resume, but if any of you want to play during the week before Christmas let our head Dik, Chuck Trudeau know.

"The Seven Diks" - Give them a big hand or laugh when you read this!

Happy Holidays,
Your "Official" CRO,
Rich Tellez

Happy Holidays from the Yadikya Staff

If you have not yet received your Yadikya Holiday card, keep an eye on your mailbox. If you don't receive it before Christmas, let Rich T know so we can get your address. You will receive a special gift from your favorite golf club.

Yadikya is the best!

A Favorable Lie

We often complain about where our ball stops and how the location makes it impossible for us to get a birdie or a par. You won't feel so badly after watching this video.
