251 Members played in the Major Event and it was a huge success so we expect that it will continue to grow in coming years.
Congratulations to ladies’ winner Jenny Price who fired an amazing round of 45 stableford points and congratulations to men’s winner Michael Kendall who had 40 stableford points.
In the Captains v Captain’s Day, the ladies were convincing winners over the men.

Christmas Giving TreeA big thank you to everyone who supported the Club’s Christmas Gift Appeal by donating much needed items to put under the Christmas Giving Tree.

Your contribution towards this very worthy cause has no doubt brought ‘a little bit of magic’ to lots of children and families all over Australia who have been impacted. The Club is extremely grateful for your ongoing support.
