What's on 17/6/2021
Welcome to this weeks edition of What's On . For the new members who have been added to the email list tonight, welcome. What's on is an email to Dannevirke Golf Club members letting them know what's coming up at the club, and will from time to time have articles about events that are either happening or have happened. Enjoy.
Saturday 19th June Card draw 11am. (Again to our new members this means arrive between 10.30 and 10.45, fill your details out on a score card and hand it in at the office. At 11am the starter will call groups of four to the different starting tees, and away you go. Saturday is Men's club day plus Saturday ladies.) Members involved in Sattrup & Brannigan , and Wiffin Cup competitions, please keep your matches up to date
Sunday 20th June. Waipawa Golf Club 27 Hole Strokeplay Tournament. 8.30am Tee Off. All day gross & net competition. Entry fee $35 includes lunch. Enquiries please contact justin.waipawagolfclub@gmail.com
Club house; The Club house was left in a bit of a mess last weekend and I take some responsibility as I locked up on Sunday. But could I please ask if there is anything on the floor or left on tables please pick it up or remove it as it makes it so much easier for those that clean the facility, this would be greatly appreciated.
Sisters Club; Great tournament, similar result! Numbers were well up on previous years including our own team. Next year is the 50th playing of the event in Patea and numbers are expected to be high as Greymouth is being invited and those that haven’t participated for a while are expected to play. There is limited accommodation in south Taranaki so we need some indication and a commitment early on to secure places. Also a special shirt is being printed and will be part of the entry fee, again an early indication of numbers is important for the organisers. So please contact me if you would like to go to Patea next Queens Birthday weekend. Thanks Stephen
Coronation Cup; The Finals of the Coronation Cup for 2021 was played last weekend 12th & 13th June at Napier Golf Club. It was contested by defending Champions Pongaroa, Wairoa, Maraenui & Takapau all seeking to get their name on the trophy for 2021.
A special thanks to the team at Napier Golf Club being able to host as it was extremely busy with little to no tee times available during the weekend!
With the teams playing 36 holes on Saturday and 18 on Sunday the teams looked to get off to a good a start on Saturday as possible with the overall results never known until late into the Sunday round.
At the end of play on Saturday Wairoa were the front runner’s going in to Sunday just ahead of Maraenui. After a slight delay on Sunday due to fog the teams were back out for the last 18 holes.
Wairoa continued their form on Sunday with Maraenui close behind.
When all the results had been calculated Wairoa came away with 3 wins from 3 to win the Coronation Cup for 2021. Maraenui were a close 2nd with 2 wins from 3.
Results were:
1st: Wairoa – 6pts – 23 Games
2nd: Maraenui – 4pts – 22 Games
3rd: Pongaroa – 2pts – 17.5 Games
4th: Takapau – 0pts – 9.5 Games
Congratulations to Wairoa!
Thank you to all the players and teams that played this year it was great to see all the teams play after last years event saw some teams unable to play.

Secretary Miranda; Can you make a mention that those members who are paying their subs by weekly instalment of $10.00 might like to increase this to the new minimum payment of $10.50. to avoid being in arrears at the end of the Sub year.
Working Bee; Saturday 17th July 8am. Assistance is required by able bodied members to remove all the iron from the old woolshed on our property on Tamaki River Road, so this can then be demolished by digger. Obviously health and safety is necessary, so if you feel you can assist, please before golf on the 17th is the day.
I hope you have all enjoyed the read tonight. As you can see, there has been a lot of cut and pasting going on, so thanks for these contributions. Any member wanting a non commercial article added to What's On, please email bburt@inspire.net.nz before 5pm Thursday evening.
Good golfing to you all,
