Board Nominations - Shaping the Future of the Club
Nominations are now open for several Board positions becoming vacant after completing their two-year term. Serving on the Board is a rewarding opportunity to contribute to the ongoing success of the Club, represent the interests of fellow members, and help guide future priorities and decisions.
If you have skills, experience, or simply a passion for seeing the Club thrive, we encourage you to consider nominating. Fresh perspectives and diverse backgrounds strengthen our Board and our Club.
Positions becoming vacant are listed below. If you'd like further information about the roles and nomination process, please contact the Operations Manager.
Nominations close 9 November for:
- Club Captain
- Vice-captain (male)
- Treasurer
- 2 general Director positions
A vote will be conducted among eligible members in the week prior to the AGM if there is more than one candidate for any vacant position.

Hacker of the Year Function
A reminder to all Hacker members that our Hacker of the Year Function will be held on 25 November. We know there are a small number of members that Ian has not been able to reach by email, and we would love to see as many Hackers attend as possible.
For full details about the event, please contact Ian Johnson (the office can put you in touch), and he will be happy to provide all the information you need.
We look forward to seeing you at the function!

Lucky Disk Draw Winners - 14 October 2026
Mixed Foursomes Results
On Sunday 11 October, 16 pairs contested the Mixed Foursomes Championships. Congratulations to Robin Smithies and Harry Smith who took out the Championship after a 3 hole playoff with Toni Brown and Matt Glover, in front of an entertained gallery.
Thanks again to Vanidol's for generously sponsoring this event.
Smokers Note
This sand bucket came off second best against a discarded cigarette, and was then left under the sand bucket trolley for someone else to deal with. Disappointing!
Please remember that State legislation prohibits smoking and vaping within 20 metres of tees, fairways and greens during organised competitions.

Bird Watching - 14th and 15th Holes
Members would have seen our perennial Oyster Catchers, around the 13th and 14th holes, have raised a rare chick this year please keep an eye out when driving your cart off fairway.
It's only the second successful hatching in past 5 years well done Oyster Catchers
