See what is on this week at the golf club

Evening all,


From last week end, we had a good sized field on Saturday for the Presidents Cup Qualifying Round, The draw will be out for the first round later in June. On Sunday we had two teams contest Pennants finals, Handicap 2, Dannevirke was beaten 5 /4 by Wairoa, and Handicap 4 another Dannevirke Wairoa final, with Wairoa winning 5 1/2 to 3 1/2 . In the Championship grades Champ 1 Napier 5 1/2 Hastings 3 1/2. Champ 2 Hastings and Napier both with 4 1/2. Hastings winning on c/b. Champ3 Hastings 5 1/2 Napier 3 1/2, and Champ 4 Hastings 5 Napier 4. Some very close matches. Once again, thanks to our members who have given their time this year to play in the Pennant competition. Between now and next February the Golf HB, will be reviewing the competition and are alwaya happy to consider changes,(earlier rather than later) As you HB delegate I'm willing to take your ideas to their Meetings.


Saturday 2nd June: We have players all over the country this weekend. Firstly 11 players are heading to Christchurch for the Sisters Club Weekend, this year hosted by the Weadons Golf Club, There is a group playing a 54 hole Matchplay at Fielding, Others are playing the 27 hole strokeplay at Onga Onga on Monday 8.30am Shot Gun Start, plus Waipawa are hosting the Lucy Owen Fundraiser also on Monday.

I'm picking there will be members in Taumaranui as well At home as always, there will be a card draw at 11.30am.


Sattrup & Brannigan FBBB Competition. I have a list of 13 pairs thus far willing to play in this years competition. Can we get three more please to have a field of 16. I have the list at home, and will return it to the Clubhouse Saturday 9th, alternatively email entries to me pleasebburt@inspirenet.nz.


From Bob Mckee. Bob has received an email from leith McInnes advising that Phil Aitken is holding another seminar on Course rating at Napier Golf Club on Thursday 21st June. If any members are interested in attending, please replay by email. Bob will be attending, so if anyone wishes to join him, please email bburt@inspirenet.nz. Thanks


Heres hoping the forcasters have got it wrong again for this weekend, and all members have a safe and enjoyable weekend where ever you travel.

Evening all,
Annual General Meeting, A good muster of members attended last Mondays AGM, where the business section flew through, with finances in good heart, and obviously members are more than happy with the course, as no one raised any negative issues regarding the Club or the Course. Recognition of service in the form of Life Memberships were bestowed on Helen Martin, Max Charmley and Ian McKenzie. Speaking to these members were Gail Borlase, John Mackay and Ken Barnett. All three new Life Members have been members of the Club since the 70s or 80s, and since joining have spent countless years on Committees, I congratulate Helen, Max and Ian on an outstanding effort A list of the 2020 committee is attached for your interest. (It may be headed 2019, but it is in fact the 2020 list)
The Match committee are working on the 2020 programme. We have some dates through from GHB but not all, and April is a difficult month to programme around as this year both Easter and Anzac weekends fall in that month. With Anzac Day on a Saturday, Monday becomes an observed day, so we have a 4 day and a 3 day weekend within two weeks of each other
Saturday 14th December: Christmas Cheer 12 noon Shot Gun Start, $20 Entry fee. The entry sheet has plenty of names on it, looks like a good field. Marcus & Glen are again running their Hagggle, food and drinks hole, so come along one and all and enjoy the day
2020:
Saturday January 11th Summer Cup Qualifying (top 32)
Christmas Message. Wishing all members a safe and happy Christmas and New Year. If you are travelling, please do so safely. Enjoy your time with family and friends. If time allows, hit the fairways
Good Golfing,
Merry Christmas,
