MAREEBA GOLF CLUB TUESDAY 10 JUNE CONSISTENCY ROUND #7

 

We have almost reached the halfway mark of available rounds in the Consistency series. Mareeba will be Consistency Round No 7 this Tuesday when we play an 18 Hole individual competition. 

The Consistency Trophy is awarded to the Man and Lady veteran golfer with the highest 10 round stableford aggregate from the 15 rounds available. So there are 9 rounds still available.We hope to have the progress points available next week.

The Mareeba course is in excellent condition following the opening two rounds of their club championships. As they say, if you can't grow grass in Mareeba , you cant grow it anywhere!

Oak Tree Cup 36 Hole Results


 One of the highlights of the FNQVGA golfing year is the 36 hole Oak Tree Cup. A stableford competition held over two weeks and this year held at the Gordonvale Golf Club situated south of Cairns. Previously the Cup was held at Cairns, and earlier in the year making it susceptible to the wet season heat and rain. Last year the second round had to be post phoned and was eventually played in less than ideal conditions a week later. With the help and encouragement of Manager Glen Donovan from Oak Tree Retirement Village, Cairns we decided to move the event closer to the middle of the year. Because our Association championships are to be held in Cairns in 2025, it was decided to play the Cup at Gordonvale. Glen has indicated today that Oak Tree Retirement Village Cairns   will continue to sponsor into 2026. 

A great field of 72 players took to the course this morning.

OAK TREE CUP ROUND 2 RESULTS TUESDAY 3 JUNE


 A great field of 72 players (60men and 12 ladies) played the second round of the Oak Tree Cup in stunning  conditions at the Gordonvale Golf Club this morning. The course was in excellent condition and the shotgun start stretched the Match Committee to the fullest. 

Manager of the Oak Tree Retirement Village Cairns Glen Donovan was on hand to promote his facility and also to have a game of golf. Retirement Villages and like developments are seen as targets for the  Local Government so it is good to have Oak Tree being a very generous sponsor. 

Russell Spenser was a visitor from Gladstone Golf Club, welcome Russell. 

President Peter Clarke was glowing in his praise of the Gordonvale Golf Club pro shop for the help we received starting the field and the Sausage Sizzle to end the day.

RESULTS MOSSMAN TUESDAY 20 MAY 2025


 It took the caravan a little longer to cross the Mowbray and both branches of the Mossman River this morning on its way to the Mossman Golf Club at Newell Beach because of the increasing number of road works. However it was well worth it for the 42  golfers (32 men and 10 ladies) who enjoyed a brilliant day in the sun.

We had two new players join today, Chris Stewart from Half Moon Bay and Kerrie Brady from Rosebud Country Club, Victoria, welcome to you both. We also had a visitor from Mount Coolum Chris Taylor. 

A special thanks to everyone associated with the Mossman Golf Club who made us feel very welcome today especially to CC's Place for lunch and snacks.
