Golf - Sunday 29th November 2009



























































































































































Today's Event was the very prestigious 56TH NAGGER'S CUP with trophies proudly donated by our Club Professional Mark Churcher. The Nagger's Cup has been one of the most popular Club Events since it was introduced to our club 56 years ago by Mark's father - Peter Churcher who was our previous Club Professional.




We had 158 starters today. Our playing partners were Col and Lauren Matterson & we had a great day. Lauren is an occasional golfer and played extremely well considering she has not played in about two years. This is a day when non golfers can participate and have some fun out on the course. It was good to see Peta Bone, Sally McCoy and Jonathon Homer out on the course enjoying their golf - they are part of our professional administration and hospitality team here at the club.

A huge highlight tonight was a $10,000 keno win to Rob & Robin Brann, Peter & Margaret Davidson, Spencer Walklate and Tania Burt, Doreen & Garry Trigg and Neil & Nerida Hancock. WOW! Now that is a highlight!
Congratulations to all.

Golf highlights today: Col Matterson got to hit off from both the Men's and the Ladies tees on the 5th;
Peter Martin had a great 2nd shot to the back of the green on the 3rd; my highlight was a great chip to the green on the 6th from a very awkward position on a tree root (put there by Peter) ;

Just a reminder to get your name down for the Mixed Foursomes that has been rescheduled to Sunday 13th December - to date we have about 100 starters.
