This week at the Dannevirke Golf Club

Bryan Burt - Club scribe • June 20, 2019

Saturday 22nd June 11am Card Draw, Sattrup & Brannigan early matches. A reminder that the early matches are the 7 matches required to be played to make the final 16. These were listed in last weeks What's On, so please try and get these played before Saturday 6th July


Sunday 23rd June. POSTPONEMENT Norsewood Golf Club 27 hole Rosebowl Tournament. The Norsewood Club have advised they have postponed their Tournament until early spring because of on course issues. New date to be advised in due course. Don't forget our own 27 Hole Tournament is set down for Saturday August 3rd.


Greenwood Cup; An update on our unfortunate situation. As was mentioned a week or two back, the Greenwood Cup has been rescheduled because date clashes which are out of our control. Second to that, the new dates of Saturday 5th and Sunday 6th October presented us with another issue. That being the Club is booked for a wedding on Saturday 5th. The wedding is taking place on the course late afternoon, which could have been accommodated had it been a Club day, but not with 80 players on the Course. Presenting our dilemma to GHB Match Committee, the decision has been made to swap the first three round with the 2020 hosts Waipukurau. Please accept that Club hireage is part of our business, and the booking would not have been made on a Greenwood weekend, except when that date changes as is the case this year.

One other matter regarding Greenwood, Takapau Golf Club are challenging the new Central Hawkes Bay Team to the 8th position. Remember Waipukurau ceased after last years Greenwood to replaced by CHB, with players drawn from Waipukurau, Waipawa and Porongahau. Challenge date is Sunday July 28th at HB Golf Club.


Wiffin Cup. I beleive we finished with about 30 qualifying, so Timmy Bell has produced the draw. No concerns though, the first round of Match play is not until Saturday 27th July.


Thats it folk, not to much to report tonight. What's On is taking a break for two weeks, so no need to check your emails for the next two weeks


Good Golfing
