CAIRNS GOLF CLUB TUESDAY 26 MARCH RESULTS

FNQVGA is getting back into the swing after the Christmas recess and Cyclone Jasper and already 129 members are financial for 2024. Some of our members are still dealing with the after effects of the cyclone and resultant flooding. We hope that there is a satisfactory resolution to these problems and life returns back to normal as soon as possible.

 57 stoic golfers (51 men and 6 ladies) braved the heat and humidity this morning to play an 18 Hole Individual Stableford on a very heavy Cairns course. A generous thank you to the  ground staff for making the  course playable in such difficult conditions. Thanks also to the girls in the Pro Shop and Clubhouse for your wonderful service.

We have three new members today , Jan Stephenson (Cairns), Shane McCarthy (Gordonvale) and Daryl Wall (Nambucca Heads). Welcome aboard!

Our sponsor today was Cazalys , meet, eat, drink and play- all responsibly.

RESULTS 2BALL AMBROSE HALF MOON BAY TUESDAY 27 FEBRUARY

 Hot and humid conditions tested a good field of 55 (50 men and 5 ladies) FNQVGA golfers when they played a 2 Ball competition at Half Moon Bay Golf Club this morning. The greens were in outstanding condition and with the run on the fairways  reduced to zero, due to the recent wet weather,  all players enjoyed the challenging course.

We had four new players today Graham Midgley (HMB) Shane Vale (HMB) Allan Cooper (Innisfail) and Thomas Vigor (Atherton), welcome aboard.

A big thank you to Paul and Tara Allen from Elements Air and Refrigeration for their most generous support.For all your refrigeration and air conditioning needs, as well as hot water system and beer equipment repairs in the Cairns and surrounding areas.
