What's on 7 April 2022

Bryan Burt - Club scribe • April 7, 2022

Sunday 10th April; Round 3 GHB Pennants. Saturday  9th April; Club Championships Round 2 Matchplay. 11.30am card draw. Covid is still causing issues around town, with members being locked down, and maybe missing one or two weeks of golf. Please be patient and talk with your opponents. We have until May 7th to get to semi finals, so please show your sporting prowess and play these matches at your earliest opportunity.


Sunday 10th April; Round 3 GHB Pennants. (draw from Andrew Jones below)


Ladies Foursomes tournament 31st March.  A successful tournament very generously sponsored by our Life members Edith and Helen Martin was held last week. A field of 52 teed off to play a foursomes format. Representatives from surrounding clubs attended, with visitors from as far as Taupo, Masterton, Judgeford, most Hawkes Bay Clubs, and Manawatu. Our winners came from Rangitira, and runners up Pahiatua. A special thanks to the gentlemen from the vets who assisted with collating the cards and bar. Thank you to Joy for the catering and all the golf ladies who contributed to the day with morning tea, raffle prizes, and decorations. Again our course was pristine. Thanks to everyone.  Glenys


Vaccinate Mandate & Pennants Draw;  (from GHB Executive officer Andrew Jones) As you are all aware the Government has removed the need for Vaccine Mandates in our industry as of Tuesday. After this happened feedback from all clubs was sought regarding their stance going forward with the potential for us to drop our requirement to be vaccinated to participate in Golf Hawkes Bay events.


After receiving feedback from the vast majority of clubs regarding this requirement the decision has been made to remove need to provide proof of vaccination for Golf Hawkes Bay events Hopefully this should help teams having more players available for selection

.

If in the future this rule or something of the like needs to be implemented it will be done with feedback from the golf clubs.


Since it has been a little bit of times between rounds below is the draw for this weekend including the tee times that I have been sent. If host clubs could ensure that they have sent these to the respective teams would be much appreciated

Tuesday 19th April Seniors Visit to Palmerston North; Have spoken to Norm, our Club manager, & your green fees will be $20.00 per player & our Vets competition is $5.00 which includes the competition, twos, & two raffle tickets. If your fellows could go to the pro shop on arrival, pay their green fees & get their cards, & then come to the starters box to enter the competition, we will team them up with some of our members to mix up the field a bit. 


Looking forward to seeing you on the 19th. 


That winds up tonight's edition of What's On. Our course is a great condition at present given the rains came at the right time, and our fairways have recovered from the summer dry. Keep those matches rolling along.


Good Golfing

We would also like to thank the Dannevirke Golf Course, our generous sponsors and our community for entering the tournament and participating in the fundraising activities held on the day. All profits of this event will go towards our students’ sports travel."
