New Local Rule E-11
⛳ New Local Rule — Holes 5 & 14
A Simple Change to Keep the Game Fair
There’s a new Local Rule to be aware of at Club Banora, and it applies specifically to the timber netting post positioned to the front left of the 5th and 14th tees.
The new rule is Local Rule E-11, and while it is very simple, it’s important that everyone understands exactly what happens if your ball comes into contact with the netting post.
🏌️ What Is Local Rule E-11?
Any ball that comes into contact with the timber netting post to the front left of tee #5 or tee #14 will require the shot to be replayed — with NO penalty.
In other words:
🎯 Hit the post = Replay the shot, no penalty!
There is no penalty stroke and no need to play the ball from where it finishes.
Simply replay the shot from the original location.
🤔 Why Is This Rule Needed?
The timber netting post is there for a practical reason, but it can create an unusual situation when a golf ball strikes it.
A ball hitting the post can produce an unpredictable result, potentially giving the player a significant advantage or disadvantage that has little to do with the quality of the golf shot itself.
Local Rule E-11 provides a straightforward and fair solution.
Rather than trying to determine what happened to the ball after the contact, the rule simply says:
Contact with the post = replay the shot.
And importantly, there is no penalty for doing so.
📍 Where Does the Rule Apply?
The rule applies to the timber netting post located:
- To the front left of tee #5
- To the front left of tee #14
It is specifically the timber netting post that triggers the rule.
So, if your ball comes into contact with that post, remember that Local Rule E-11 applies.
⚠️ What Should You Do?
If your ball strikes the timber netting post:
- Stop play on that ball.
- Confirm that the ball has contacted the relevant timber netting post.
- Return to the original location of the shot.
- Replay the shot.
- No penalty stroke is added.
It’s as simple as that.

📢 THE NOTICE BOARD HAS RISEN! 🏌️♂️
A Historic Day at the Club!
Stop the presses, cancel the emergency meeting and alert the clubhouse bar…
THE GOLF NOTICE BOARD IS BACK! 🎉
After what can only be described as an extended period of administrative maintenance — or, for those of us who prefer the truth, it fell over and nobody could be bothered putting it back — the legendary notice board has finally been re-erected and put back into service!
Yes, folks, it is standing.
It is upright.
It has notices on it.
We can hardly contain ourselves.
📌 A New Era Begins
The newly re-erected board is ready to carry the weight of important golfing information once again.
Please use it responsibly.
Pin things up.
Read things.
Remove things when they’re no longer relevant.
🎉 Welcome Back, Old Friend!
So let’s take a moment to appreciate this magnificent achievement in club infrastructure.
The notice board is standing proud once again, ready to inform.
📢 THE BOARD IS BACK!
Long may it stand.
And if anyone sees it starting to lean…
KEEP WALKING. 😂⛳🍻
Happy Golfing

The skies were blue, clouds were white and it blew a gale from the north west today for our Jarrod Lyle Fund raiser . The ladies were turned out in yellow brightening up the course and playing some great golf today. Plenty of run on the course and fast running greens suited quite a lot of our members with some of the best scores we’ve seen this year.
Our ladies raised $200 for the Jarrod Lyle Foundation, thanks so much for your generosity. Peggy Williams was the winner of the “ lolly bottle count “ with 83 being the correct number. Happy lolly eating Peggy !!
We dont have Eagles everyday on our course, especially not on the first hole but today Alison Blair put the third shot in the hole. Congratulations Alison and coming your way is an Eagles Badge and 6 balls at Presentation next week.

💛 DO IT FOR JAROD LYLE – 4 PERSON AMBROSE MEDLEY 💛
Saturday, 19th September | 8:00am Shotgun Start
Get the yellow shirts out, find something bright and cheerful, and prepare your best “that was definitely the shot we were taking” excuse — it’s time for our Do It For Jarrod Lyle 4 Person Ambrose Medley! ⛳😂
This is a FREE DAY FOR MEMBERS ONLY, with an 8:00am shotgun start, plenty of prizes up for grabs and, most importantly, a chance for us all to get behind a fantastic cause.
After the golf, we’ll be enjoying pizzas from Galileo’s Pizza 🍕 and some light refreshments — because nothing helps you forget the four-footer you missed quite like beer & pizza!
💛 LET’S BREAK OUR FUNDRAISING RECORD!
This year, we’d love to smash our previous fundraising record for Jarod Lyle’s charity.
All proceeds from the raffle will be donated, and the more money we raise, the better — because our club also goes into the draw for the chance to WIN A GOLF CART! 🏌️♂️🚗
We’d also love everyone to throw in a gold coin donation before the commencement of play. The golf is free, there are loads of prizes to be won, so digging around in the car console for a gold coin shouldn’t hurt too much! 😂
So grab your team, wear yellow or something bright and cheery, bring a few dollars for the raffle and come along for a brilliant day of golf, laughs, pizza and fundraising.
Let’s fill the course, have some fun and see if Club Banora can set a new fundraising record this year.
💛 DO IT FOR JARROD 💛
This event opens this Friday for bookings. Walkers are able to book in prior to this Friday. Please see staff behind the bar for a tee time. Full groups of walkers will be given preference to the holes closer to the island house.
