Welcome

Saturday 1st October;  11.30am card draw. Continuation of President Cup and Sattrup & Brannigan matches


Ace, Congratulation to Raymond Martin for his hole in one on the ninth on Sunday 18th. His wife Jude summed it up the best. Not bad for 45 years practice.


Ladies Ashcott last Monday; The ladies Ashcott team won against Waipukarau on Monday 5/1, a great result for Dannevirke Thanks Val


Message from the CDISC President;  On behalf of the CDISC Club Committee I would like to express my sincere thanks to Tony, Mike and the team at the Dannevirke Golf Club for their amazing assistance in hosting the New Zealand Indian Sports Association Shires Golf Open.


The course was immaculate considering the amount of rainfall during week, we certainly appreciate the hard work and effort the Club put into preparing and cutting under very difficult circumstances.


The assistance in organising the draw and the branded Shires balls and markers was also greatly appreciated (thanks Mike)


Both this tournament and the previous one held in 2015 have been our largest golf events since its inception something we are incredibly proud of.


It was fitting that we were able to host this event in ‘Dannevirke to coincide with the celebration of Shires 100th years of service, we are so appreciative for their support that they have given us and continue to provide our club.


We look forward to bringing the Golf Open back to Dannevirke in the future.


Kind Regards 

Kiran Pabhu

President-CDISC


Seniors;

Just a reminder that we are visiting Carterton vets next Tuesday 4 October. Tee off will be at 9.30am which means we will have to be ready to depart Dannevirke at 7.30am

Green fees will be $10 and the competition $5.00


As Carterton wants to know how many of us will be visiting; could you please email back by 8pm Friday night if you are interested in going. At this point I have 16 Dannevirke names.


Latest time for a cancellation in the event of adverse weather conditions prevailing; will be 9pm Monday night.


Those looking to car pool will meet at the Allardice Street car park in Dannevirke before 7.30am. Note: we are subsidizing each car/driver $50.00 plus a minimum of $10 from each passenger. Please let me know Monday night if you already have a pre-arranged carload.


The $50 will be paid by direct credit to your bank account, so please give your bank account details to Val. Cheers for now, Regards Gavin.


Here's hoping the weather forecasts are all up the pole and we have two great days over the weekend to play golf. 


Good Golfing

What's On 23 April 2026?

By Bryan Burt - club scribe • April 23, 2026
Saturday, April 25th, Anzac Day. Golf will commence at 12 noon, as we ask members not to play on the morning of Anzac Day. 11.45 am card draw. 12 noon tee off. Best member stableford of the day wins the Waitahora Cup, plus the men play the ladies for a Shield. Aggregate Stableford points. Duty Zane House Gillian. Special Event: We have a guest speaker at 4 pm. All welcome. Coronation Cup Finals Sat 23rd & Sun 24th May; Porongahau has been confirmed as the host for this year's final. Team announcement later. Trundler Shed; The committee are concerned at the continual abuse of this shed. It is supposed to be a locked place to keep clubs secure if you don't want to take them home after each round. Security is consistently compromised as the door is left unlocked and held open with the steel bar while everyone is out playing. Not much security when that happens. Last night's discussion suggested that we cease to provide this service after 1st June. Anyone with concerns etc regarding this move are asked to send a reply to sender email to me, which will be collated and considered at our next meeting. Subscriptions : Bailey reported last night that all members who pay annually have been sent an email invoice. Weekly and monthly payers will be receiving their invoices shortly. If you have a message to increase or decrease your payments, please action as soon as possible. It is very time-consuming allocating these payments, so if you account is in credit and you are asked to stop payments, please do so; likewise, if you are behind with payments, check your balance, divide it by five, and that is what you owe to be clear by 30th September, being the end of our financial year. Any queries, please email dannevirkegolf@xtra.co.nz , or talk to Patrick, please. A lot of rain this week, so if you are driving a cart, please keep to the tracks. Number 17 fairway is not to be driven on, please use the track to the right and walk across to your ball if you are not at the top of the hill. Clearly, two carts made quite a mess there last Sunday and lost traction on the hill. In short, Don't Go There. Have a great weekend, folks, and we hope to get a good muster for our Anzac Day event.

Sisters Club, Queen's Birthday in Patea; S orry for missing a number of people at the proposed meeting a couple of weeks ago, I assumed it would be a normal Saturday and turned up at 5 pm to discover only a small number of people played that day, and most of those that did had gone home. I’m at golf this Saturday, so we’ll have a meeting following the prize giving. From my informal enquiries, it looks like we’ll have a group of about 24 going to Patea. I’ve booked accommodation at the Kerry Lane motel in Hawera. I’m currently looking at transport options. The most likely is a couple of vans. We will then require a couple of drivers for Saturday and Sunday. Regards Stephen Best wishes to our Coronation Cup team at Takapau, let's hope the cyclone heads out east and gives us a miss. For those turned off by the weather, there is always the Masters at Augusta to watch from the dry comfort of your lounge chair. Good Golfing👍 Bryan Burt Club Scribe
