MAREEBA RESULTS TUESDAY 27TH AUGUST

 


Yesterday a magnificent day greeted 50 male and 11 lady players at the Mareeba GC where the FNQ Vets played a Single Stableford to decide the 12th Round of the Consistency Series. The Round was sponsored by Drummond Cairns, with thanks to Darren and his team.

With just 2 rounds in the Series left to play, the competition is hotting up for the player who ends up with the highest aggregate Stableford points over their best 10 rounds in the Series for 2024. All will be revealed at the Christmas break up/trophy presentation on Tuesday 26th November.

We would like to thank Gabi, who sorted us out and got us going early and Amelia who made sure we were fed and watered at plays end. Also thanks to Carl and all the course volunteers who have Mareeba GC playing fast but fair.  The greens are as good as any in the Far North.  It is always a pleasure to visit our friends on the Tablelands and experience their great hospitality.

Yesterday we said farewell to Tom & Marg Finch and Phillip Smith who are all heading back south to the cooler climate. Safe journeys and we look forward to seeing you all back in 2025.

On a sadder note, the FNQ Vets lost one of its favourite members with the recent passing of John Gregan. John will be sadly missed at our Tuesday rounds and on behalf of the FNQVGA we send our condolences to John's family.

Pete Wyatt conducted the presentations for the day before hitching up his rig and heading off into the Savannah country and then the far beyond. Stay safe Pete and enjoy your travels.
