This weekend sees the start of the 2009 Ceduna Golf Club season, with the holding of the traditional Anzac Day Flag Event.
This is a stroke event with names to be in at the captain’s office by 12 noon.
On Sunday, April 26, there is a Far West Club Teams Challenge event sponsored by Buzzy’s Enterprises.
This is a four-person Ambrose event designed to get some interest from those who may only play golf once or twice a year.
Get your sports club or team, or social club to put a team of four together, with non-golfers, women and men of all ages invited and encouraged to have a try.
There will be novelty prizes such as best (or worst?) dressed, nearest to the pin and for the most unique shot of the day, with, of course the trophy for the best performed team.
It doesn’t matter if you don’t have a handicap or clubs, but to just come along and have a try.
Buzzy’s Enterprises has sponsored the event for the past few years and there are some great prizes to be won.
Contact Mike Knowles or Kym Woods for further information, but be there by 11.30am for a 12 noon tee-off, with a cost of $30 per team.
