Bio of nominated Board Members

Shoot your age - new board

Ross Edmunds - Tuesday 17 Sept. 87 gross.

Trevor Jonas and Roy Wingrove (not pictured) on 24 Sept. Trevor shot 85 gross and Roy shot 84 gross.

Shoot your age

Due to the rising record of 'shooting your age'- we have now established a new board on our wall for shoot your age records. A record, some might say, that is growing at a very quick rate! New rules have now been established for this record board: -

- Acknowledgement of this round can only be if you did not pick up your golf ball at any time. You must play the round equivalent to a stroke round.

- Shoot your age literally means, shooting your age. If you shoot better than your age, well done, but your name will not be on the board.

- You must advise office staff if you did accomplish this feat as that is the only way that we will know! We will then check your score with your marker on the day.

- This feat is only to be achieved in an 18 hole round.

Founders Cup

In recognition and memory of our founding members, the honour board event - Founders Cup will be held on Sunday 3 November 2024 with a morning shotgun at 7.30 am.

The event is open to all golf-playing categories except for junior introduction.

The entry fee includes a buffet lunch served after golf.

Join us on this day to reflect back on how far the Club has grown in the last 79 years and how much our founding members volunteered their time and effort into building the great course and club that we have today.

Melbourne Cup - Calcutta

We have an exciting new event!

Traditionally, we've been holding our Melbourne Cup Calcutta on the day itself, but this year, we will be holding it on the night before.

On Monday 4 Nov, we will be holding the Melbourne Cup Calcutta which includes 9 hole twilight comp, 1 drink token and 1 Calcutta ticket.

Member guest fee is $30pp and members only pay $20pp.

There will be a special Calcutta auction held by a professional race caller so we are all in for a treat.

Guaranteed to be lots of fun, bets and laughter on the night. Please head over to the office to submit your CASH ONLY payment.

Melbourne Cup Golf and Lunch

Our popular Melbourne Cup Golf and Lunch is back again this year.

You will receive a buffet lunch, a fun golf ambrose event competition and post golf food.

A rare opportunity to take a day off and play golf with your mates in a team event.

Timesheet will open to all eligible golf playing categories on Tuesday 15 October at 5pm. Payment required at booking.

Hurry as this event usually books out quickly!

Gala Night

Our Gala Night will be held on Friday 22 November from 6pm.

Booking for event is now open online and ticket is $65pp. Ticket price is payable at time of booking.

The gala night is themed black and gold and we encourage guests to wear the same colours.

The ticket price includes a welcome drink on arrival, live entertainment and a fabulous 3-course dinner.

Last year's event was well received and many spoke highly of being able to acknowledge and recognise our club's hall of fame and champions. We would love to see you there on the night.

Policy reminder

At the Board meeting in July 2024, it was resolved that the following policy to be in place from 1 August (with a grace period until 31 December 2024 for existing members). The new policy states:

Any member that transfers from golf playing category to house membership and transfers back to a golf playing category will incur payment of the current year's nomination fee. This does not apply to non-playing members.

Therefore, if you are currently a house member and you have intentions to return to a golf playing membership in the near future, please change your membership category to non-playing so you will not incur a nomination fee in the future.

Holes in one for the last 4 in record

We were amiss in acknowledging Rod Western's hole in one on 18 May at the 14th hole!

Congrats to Ron Groenveld for his hole in one on 30 August 2024 at the 4th hole

Congrats to Chris Bryant for his hole in one on 24 Sept 2024 at the 11th hole

Congrats to George Christie for his hole in one on 26 September 2024 at the 9th hole
