What's on this week at the club 13/11/2020

Bryan Burt - Club scribe • November 12, 2020

Results;  From last Saturday hosting Feilding for our annual inter club. Unfortunately the Chadwick Trophy returned to Feilding with their 19 player aggregate being 33, versus Dannevirke's 32 aggregate 31.64. Brendon & Wendy Poole came over and played for Feilding, and both played very well, we could have done with their scores!

Sunday, sadly only three pairs turned out for the mixed foursomes, but in true club spirit, they went ahead with it, albeit only playing 18 holes because of the rain that came in around lunch time. Winners Rodney Henricksen and Marilyn Hall

 

Saturday 14th November / Sunday 15th November; Greenwood Cup Rounds 4-8 Maraenui Golf Club at home, Card draw 11.30am

 

Saturday 21st November, Closing day, commencing with card draw at 11.30am

Trophy presentations 4.30, BBQ 5pm. Wives, husbands and partners welcome.

 

Saturday 28th / Sunday 29th November;  Final GHB Coronation Cup being hosted at Dannevirke.  Yet to be confirmed, but I believe they play 36 holes Saturday and 18 early Sunday. Captain Mike has requested assistance with catering and bar duties both days please. We need to supply lunch Saturday for 48 players plus caddies and officials, so around 60 people, plus some form of flight lunch Sunday following the 18 holes of play. Mike has enough to do without being the catering manager so please offers of help will be gratefully received.

Managing Licensed Premises

 

Tararua REAP is hosting the above course on Saturday 28 November, covers such things as Managing Licensed Premises, Host Responsibilities and learning and demonstrating a knowledge of the Sale and Supply of Alcohol Act 2012. This will lead to obtaining a Managers Certificate. Ideally the Club could do with 2 or 3 people with a Managers Certificate, particularly when we host private functions. For further information contact Stephen Paewai 021 1658685 Thanks Stephen

 

Best of luck to our Greenwood team this weekend, as they play the final four rounds of this years competition. Closing day, is an often asked for, but previously poorly supported event. Mike has had all the trophies engraved, so asks that our members get behind the idea of a prize giving, and stay around to receive their respective cups, plus share a Club BBQ. As mentioned above spouses are also welcome.

The Coronation Cup finals are a Club hosting event, not just a Club Captain hosting event.  While there should be personnel from GHB to record scores etc., they like to get out on Course and watch play, so we need starters, office people to record results as they come off the course, plus caterers. I'm sure Mike would be more than happy if someone said they would take on the chief cook and bottle washing job, but I will leave those offers up to you as members to take directly to Mike.

 

Unless someone else is inclined to write What's On next week, it will be taking a break, as scribe has a busy week playing The Hills, Wednesday Millbrook Thursday and Arrowtown Friday. Also meeting up with Sir Bob Charles, who is drawn in Max Charmleys Four at The Hills. Looking forward to the scenery and parting company with some golf balls  .

 

Good Golfing folks.

Preliminary work is underway for this tournament. Dates yet to be confirmed, but it looks like the Wellington Anniversary Weekend in January, starting on Friday, and concluding on Sunday. Presidents Cup Final: t o be contested between Timmy Bell and Denzil Treacy Junior. Sattrup & Brannigan, 2025 winners Mark Rosocaker & Chappy Maniapoto. Congratulations guys. Ladies Shoot Out; Completed today with Margaret Treacy winning from Margaret Stephenson. Another great day from all accounts. On Course Tee Signs: A big shout-out to our tee sponsors for their continued support of our Club. With business changes, we have 5 tee signs available for advertising your business. If any member wishes to take up one of these signs, please contact our Secretary Bailey Harold at dannevirkegolf@xtra.co.nz. Annual General Meeting; Monday 8th December. Another call please, for members to consider putting themselves forward for nomination to the various committees. Our thanks to Bailey for her work to date on the new constitution. Every Club in NZ has to update their Constitution before the end of April 2026, so we can continue to apply for Charity funding etc. Golf NZ produced a template, and we are just adding the final touches for our Club. This will need to be adopted at the AGM. At this point, we have not had any major damage on our course with the wind, but today is going to be another windy one. Fingers crossed, we get through unscathed, and the wind settles for a fine weekend with ample opportunity to play some golf. Best wishes to all who are traveling this weekend for tournaments or other golfing adventures. Travel safely and play well. Good Golfing👍 Bryan Burt Club Scribe

Greenwood Cup Rounds 1-3; Conditions at Waipukurau Golf Club were very pleasant for two rounds of golf Saturday and one Sunday. The rough at Waipukurau has for years has been dense clover and still is, which can be deceiving, as the ball looks ok, but the clover can be difficult to hit from. Saturday morning the team played Karamu having a 7 to 3 win, followed in the afternoon with an 8.5 to 1.5 win against Central Hawkes Bay. Sunday morning we came up against the first of the city Clubs Napier, and were defeated 7 to 3. Two matches concluded with draws on the 18th, and 3 finished on the 17th, so it wasn't all bad. The current standings are Hastings first on 6 points with 27.5 games, Onga Onga second also on 6 points and 23 games, Napier third with 4 points and 20 games, with Dannevirke fourth on 4 points and 18.5 games. Looking forward to the final four rounds at Hastings Golf Club on November 15th & 16th . Annual General Meeting; Monday 8th December at 7.30pm. A reminder to Committee chairman and others to have your reports to Gail by next weekend (Labour Weekend) for the Annual Report. With daylight saving now in progress, encourage any friends or relatives that are keen to maybe consider a Summer Subscription. (Runs the duration of daylight saving) For membership forms see Patrick at Harold Golf Shop, or email Bailey at dannevirkegolf@xtra.co.nz . If your game is off colour at present, again see Patrick for a lesson. Good Golfing👍 Bryan Burt Club Scribe
