RESULTS CAIRNS TUESDAY 28 APRL 2026

 

A great field of 81 FNQVGA golfers (61 men and 20 ladies) almost got caught on a sticky wicket at the Cairns Golf Club this morning but the sun came out long enough for some great scores to be returned, especially in the ladies. Thanks to everyone involved in making the morning a great success. 

We had one new member today Andrew Jackson from Gordonvale Golf Club- welcome aboard.

 A rainbow is an optical phenomenon formed by the refraction, internal reflection, and dispersion of sunlight within airborne water droplets, such as rain or mist.A perfect example of this formed over the 5th Green this morning and sent some golfers looking for the elusive pot of gold. 

Thanks to our major sponsor for today Drummond Golf cairns.

Next week: Gordonvale Golf Club 8am start.

If you choose to use a card to score please ensure you record your score on the computer at the Captains desk.  This simple thing will ensure the presentation can go ahead quickly at the completion of play, while a goodly number of players are present.

RESULTS MAREEBA TUESDAY 14 APRIL

 As promised, the Mareeba Golf Course provided more of a challenge that we have had all year this morning when 51 FNQVGA golfers (41 men and 10 ladies) played the third round of the 2026 Consistency series. Gone were the preferred lies we have played all year. The greens were hard and fast in preparation for the Steggles Mareeba Open this weekend, and the rough was suitably punishing for errant drives and approaches. Thank you to Brian in the clubhouse for helping us get started. And an even bigger thank you to the Mareeba Superintendent and his band of merry men for preparing the course. 

Our generous sponsors Elements Air and Refrigeration are to be thanked as well.  

Next week we move to the coast to play a 2Ball Ambrose at Half Moon Bay , get yourself a partner for the 7am tee off.
