CAIRNS GOLF CLUB STABLEFORD CONSISTENCY SERIES

 We visit Cairns Golf Club this Tuesday 8 July for Round 9 in the Consistency series.

Tee off from 7am nominate from 6.30am

SPONSOR: DRUMMOND GOLF.

 

RESULTS INNISFAIL TUESDAY 1 JULY 2025

 A perfect day on the Cassowary Coast today, and a beautifully presented Innisfail Golf Course but 52 FNQVGA golfers (43 men and 9 ladies) struggled to come to terms with difficult pin positions, heavy air and a lack of run. Queensland blue couch greens in excellent condition require a different skill set for golfers to come out on top and the ever consistent trio of Keith Schirmer, George and Edna Atkinson show their consistency and resilience to take home the cookies.

Innisfail Golf Club always excels with its hospitality and today was no different. Thanks to the Cockles and bar staff for your help.

We had one new member today Scott Whybird from Atherton as well as a visitor from Cairns John Burns. 

Thanks to our Sponsors today Davidson Coaching.

Another great field of 59 FNQVGA vets (47 men and 12 ladies) had a very enjoyable day on the links at Atherton  today. Well if we were at the end of Golf Links Toad it could be the "links." The course is certainly a picture and a considerable challenge. Congratulations to all those involved, and that includes Nikki in the Clubhouse.

RESULTS HALF MOON BAY TUESDAY 17 JUNE.

Early scuds may have tested the first few tee times this morning , but, the day turned out to be a very pleasant one for FNQVGA golfers who played a single stableford in Round 8 in the consistency series. The Yorkeys Knob course is in excellent condition, thanks to all staff associated with its preparation. 

A good filed of 42 players (35 men 7 ladies) ignored the weatherman, and reaped the benefit. All grades required the use of the Australian ties system to decide the winners. 

WE had three new members join up today, Carl Fox, Greg Althaus and  John King, all from Half Moon Bay- Welcome!

Once again we thank our major sponsor Drummond Golf Cairns. Why not drop in and checkout the new Alfred Street Manunda  location.
