Golf Program
We conduct twice weekly 18 hole competitions. Tuesday fields in the order of 50-60 players are common, whilst Friday entries usually range from 30-40. Tee off on both days is from first light until all are away, to suit the obligations of the Course Managers to the public and other user groups. There is also a separate 9 hole competition played on Tuesdays for those members who are getting older or are recovering from injury or illness (see below). A Thursday competition is also held commencing at approximately 10:30 am.
Members are encouraged and expected to attend the Club rooms on Tuesdays after the game to foster friendships and gain first-hand knowledge of any announcements and information for the members. In addition to the presentation of winners' trophies and a generous quantity of ball prizes for both Friday and Tuesday competitions, there is an Almoner’s Report, clarification of Rules and social function updates. Thus a limited involvement based on “Play and Go ” is not part of the culture of our Club.
A diverse and challenging Golfing Program is developed annually and includes several annual Championship Events and Seasonal Plates, Medal Days, occasional Novelty Events and inter club competitions with other mens and ladies clubs.
Normal intra club playing days are either Stroke, Stableford or Par competitions. Other formats such as 4 Ball Best Ball (4BBB), Ambrose, Super Par & Chapman Pairs also are featured throughout the Program.
There is an annual Match Play Championship for 32 qualifiers.
Furthermore, the Club regularly plays at other courses such as Waterford Valley. There is an annual trip away to a course such as Rich River on the Murray River.
In short, Members are fully challenged with a variety of golfing formats developed by the Match Committee within the disciplines of established playing Protocols.
