Club Championship Trophies

The Club Championships have begun and it’s time to unveil the Trophies. As you are aware, there are singles trophies for Men and Women but the most prestigious of the three is The Greg Ramsey Trophy for the Pairs. The Pairs trophy has been named in honour of Greg Ramsey who provided strong support for the birth of Horizons Veterans Golf Club.

HVGC Championships

Update:
1st RND Pairs Results – 1st October – 2 Person Ambrose
1st RND Singles Results – 8th October – Stableford

The HVGC Championships are to be held in October. Since we play 50% of our games as either Teams events (Ambrose and 4BBB) and the other 50% as individual rounds (Stableford and Stroke), it has been decided that we have two club championship events:

  • One for Teams and
  • One for Individuals – separate for Men and Ladies

The best placed 2 person team for the Ambrose and the 4BBB combined will be declared the winner of the Team Championship. The best placed players (men and ladies) of the two individual rounds consisting of Stableford and Stroke will be declared the winners of the Individual event.

See the full calendar of events in October here or click the individual event links from the Event Highlights in the adjacent panel.

More to come on the subject of the method for countbacks.

There will be a perpetual trophy for the winner of each category, plus $50 each for the pairs winners and $75 each for the mens and ladies winners.

Prize presentation, AGM and Member Draw will accompany lunch from the menu below. Pre-order your lunch at the bar before 22nd October and pay your $5 on the day.

Everyone can compete as it’s only a normal Tuesday competition over 9 holes off the yellow tees, no special arrangements required.  

EXCEPT: Players in the team event must play with another HVGC member for both rounds for the Team Event.
