What's On 27 October 2023?

Bryan Burt - Club Scribe • October 26, 2023

Saturday 28th October; Hosting Coronation Cup Finals for Golf Hawkes Bay. This involves 4 teams of 12 playing match play. (3 rounds), teeing off Saturday at 7.30am and mid day, and Sunday 10.30am (after the Rugby)


Saturday 28th October;  Card draw at 11am. (Note time change) Duty, Timmy & Chalky The starting time has been brought forward to accommodate members between the morning and afternoon rounds of Coronation Cup. If we only start on tees 1 and 10, we won't have anyone in front of us, and the afternoon matches will start around 12 noon behind our field. Club Members draw 4pm in the clubhouse.


Sunday 29th October;  Again we can accommodate Club members and the Coronation Cup finals. As mentioned above the Coronation Cup field will start at 10.30am. Once they have teed off members can follow from tees 1 and 10. If there is slow play in front of you please accept that today only you won't get called through, as they have right of way. Please check in at the shop before starting. There are some cart bookings for both players and referees, so please don't just go and take a cart without checking first at the shop. 


Trundler shed. A reminder that clubs etc are left in the trundler shed at your own risk. Someone is removing golf balls and tees from bags at present, which is totally unacceptable. Serious consequences will follow when someone is found. I personally know two members that have had golf balls etc removed, so all I will say is someone is either brave or mad! Our cameras don't lie, so watch out. If anyone has any further information about who that someone may be, please speak to President Tony or Captain Mike anonymously.


Several members of the Match Committee and others are giving up their weekend to host and cater for the Coronation Cup finals. Please work with them and accept their directions rather than putting yourselves into the middle of the field. I appreciate we have had two Golf Hawkes Bay events within two weeks, but that is just the way the rotation has worked. Your can still get a game in, you may just have to wait longer than 5 minutes to tee off. Good luck to our Zone champions Pongaroa for the weekend, and finally Go the All Blacks


Good Golfing
