A Reminder About Pace of Play

We’re seeing an increasing number of groups, particularly in the morning field, falling well behind the group ahead. Please remember that it is the responsibility of the lowest marker in each group to help ensure the group maintains the correct pace of play. Your group should be right behind the group in front at all times. Moving forward a new Local rule will be introduced disqualifying the group, not just the lowest marker as per Men’s Golf Match Committee 11/7/26

When groups lose position early in the day, it creates a ripple effect that sees the afternoon field teeing off 30–50 minutes late, with the final groups not finishing until around 5:00 pm.

From now on, slow groups will receive a written warning for a first infringement. A second infringement will result in disqualification from the competition.

Please be considerate of your fellow members by keeping up with the group ahead, being ready to play, and embracing Ready Golf wherever possible.

Good Luck to Our Pennant Teams

Best of luck to all of our men’s pennant teams representing the club in the 2026 GNR Pennants this Sunday.

• Team 1 and Team 3 will be travelling to Ocean Shores.
• Team 2 heads to Coraki.

We wish everyone the very best. Play well, enjoy the day, represent the club with pride, and most importantly—have fun!

Don’t forget to book into our free members Ambrose day on the 26th July!!!!
