Presidents Report & Results Gordonvale GC Tuesday 19 Apr 22

 

PRESIDENT REPORT & RESULTS GORDONVALE GOLF CLUB

Hi Members,

Today`s game was a single stableford event and we had 63 players consisting of 53 men & 10 ladies.

Our sponsor today was Brothers Leagues Club who are a great supporter to the Vets and if you are looking for a place to dine or enjoy their fantastic entertainment please drop in to Brothers Leagues Club.

The weather was absolutely perfect and the course was very good considering that the greenkeeper has only just returned from holidays. Thanks to Pete & Darryl for looking after us throughout the day. Gordonvale GC thanks those members who completed their survey and appreciate your input.

The food van (Bonnies Treats & Sweets) was well supported by the Vets and it will now be in place for all of our games at Gordonvale.

Our next game will be a single stableford event at Atherton GC sponsored by our very own Liz (Secretary) & Pete (V/Capt) Edmonds, hope to see you all there.

Regards

Robin

Presidents Report & Results Mossman GC Tuesday 12 Apr 22

PRESIDENT REPORT & RESULTS MOSSMAN GOLF CLUB

Hi Members,

Today`s game was a single stableford event at Mossman Golf Club and we had 57 players consisting of 41 men & 16 ladies, much rain overnight and early this morning probably the reason for the lower numbers. There was one visitor from Mackay, Mark Henrich, I hope you enjoyed your game with the FNQ Vets.

Our sponsor today was Drummond Golf who are a great supporter to the Vets so if you need any golf gear/lessons please drop in and see the team at Drummonds, they will lift your game!

The weather was fantastic and the course just as good as the weather, a pleasure to play there. We were a little short staffed today due to some medical issues but I would like to thank Liz, Pete & Lois for filling in the gaps, well done team.

FOUND: There was a 52 wedge handed in today so if you have lost it please call or see me next week at Gordonvale GC.

Our next game will be a single stableford event at Gordonvale GC sponsored by Brothers Leagues Club hope to see you all there.

Gordonvale GC are currently conducting a survey within their club in an attempt to improve the course & service. They have asked that if the Vets players would like to be included in their survey, a form is available on request, please offer positive comments if you complete the survey.

Also a coffee/food van (Bonnies sweets & treats) will be operating at the club from 0600 next Tuesday until close of play offering Toasties, Muffins, Sandwiches, Coffee etc etc this should be a win/win all around.

Regards

Robin

PRESIDENT REPORT & RESULTS INNISFAIL GOLF CLUB

Hi Members,

Today`s game was a single stableford event and we had 61 players consisting of 46 men & 15 ladies. There was one new member, David Barrow from Babinda GC, welcome to the Vets David.

Our sponsor today was the REEF CASINO who are a tremendous support to the Vets and their sponsorship is very much appreciated by all of our members, drop in and play a while you might just win a little.

We were welcomed with open arms by Addy & Jake, the coffee and pastries were an absolute treat and we were spoilt no end, you have set the bar very high now for other clubs to follow. The course was also fantastic, a great testament to your cast of volunteers, well done to you all and the weather just topped off the day at Innisfail.

There was an incident today: player A`s (no names Dave Jackson) buggy went into the water, player B (Bert Smith all the way up from Albury NSW)) helped him get it out and dry it off, player A found his ball and hit it straight into player B`s face, player A ran up to player B and said...... WHERE DID MY BALL GO? Yes it happens on a golf course nowhere else and yes there was blood.

For sale: John Pilbin (0402049046) is selling his MGI (10yrs old) buggy with a 10 month old lithium battery which will last 2 rounds comfortably and a spare battery that will last 1 round, battery charger also included and he is asking just $250 ono a good buy.

Our next game will be a single stableford event at Mossman GC sponsored by Drummond Golf hope to see you all there.

President Report & Results Cairns GC Tuesday 29 Mar 22

 

PRESIDENT REPORT & RESULTS CAIRNS GOLF CLUB

Hi Members,

Today`s game was a single stableford event and we had 87 players consisting of 65 men & 22 ladies. There were 2 new members; Warren Berry from HMBGC and Margaret Laas from Cairns GC, welcome to the Vets.

Our sponsor today was Andrina & Doug Christison who very kindly donated today`s prizes, it is fantastic to see members of the Vets chip in to help out when our sponsorship was down for the 2022 Program. Many thanks to Andrina & Doug for their support to the Vets.

Once again the weather was fantastic however, the course is currently undergoing a complete facelift and there are many holes still to be completed but it will be all worthwhile when all the irrigation works are done and dusted. Keep at it Tim you are going great as the amazing scores below reflect how good the course is.

Our next game will be a single stableford event at Innisfail GC sponsored by the REEF CASINO hope to see you all there.

Next Game Cairns GC Tuesday 29 Mar 22

 Hi Members,

The next game is scheduled for Cairns GC on Tuesday 29 Mar 22 and will be a stableford event sponsored by our very own Andrina & Doug Christison.

One of our long time ex committee members John Pilbin is now resigned to playing in a motorised cart therefore, he is selling his beloved buggy with batteries including charger. It is a MGI buggy about 10yrs old with a 10mth old Lithium battery which will last 2 rounds easily there is also a spare battery that will do 1 round. It is not a flash buggy but is very reliable and he is asking $250 ono. Please see John at Cairns to check it out.

Hope to see you all there.

Regards

Robin

Atherton game Tuesday 15 Mar washout

 Members,

Today`s game at Atherton GC was a washout due to very ordinary weather conditions. Many thanks to our dedicated committee (bar myself) for making the trek up the various ranges in dangerous conditions so our members could get a game.  The normal group of "golf trajics" turned up but it was even too much for them so coffee ended up the only way to go.

The next and final Tablelands of Summer game will be at Millaa Millaa next Tuesday with our next game at Cairns GC on Tuesday 29 March and then the weekly program commences for the duration of 2022.

Regards

Robin
