How lovely it was today to finally get out on the golf course. The course was in remarkable condition after all the wet weather and a huge Thankyou goes out to the grounds staff. As it was our annual Pink Lady team event the flags were pink and the sand refill bins were resplendent with a pretty flower. Again Thankyou for taking the trouble to make our day special.

We also celebrated our retired member, Betty Hall’s 100th Birthday. What a milestone and Betty joined us after our golf to enjoy catching up with everyone and of course to cut the cake.

We also held a raffle with the proceeds going to the Oncology Dept at the Tweed Hospital.Many thanks to everyone who supported this very worthy cause and we raised $325.

I would like to take space to thank my hard working committee for making this day such a wonderful success.
The event of the day was proudly sponsored in memory of Rosie Connolly – 12 months have flown by since we lost her. Liz Edwards and sister Jane donated all prizes and these were greatfully received by lots of winners.

Winners of the team event – 3 scores to count were : June McFadden, Myra Biggar, Helen Evans And Diane Hughes 122 pts from Kaye Mills, Pat Hodda, Peggy Williams and Pauline Ryan 117 pts.
Winners of the Pink Ball game held in conjunction with the team event were : Alison Blair, Marlene Wyatt Coral Rasmussen and Privanda Hawley 38pts.

All players, except the winners of the NARGA award, received $5 on their card.
NTP on 7th – Colleen Kelly and in 16th Diane Hughes. Each member of the team received a prize.

The Pro Pin was won by:Nancy Douglas.

It was lovely to see so many ladies out enjoying the sunshine and the course today . Next week we hold our final Medal for the year so get your names down.

So Good to be back out there 🙂

Another fantastic day at Club Banora with some impressive scoring leading the way. Congratulations to everyone who picked up a prize and thanks to all who came along for a great day on the course. It was great to be back out there and the course slowly bouncing back. A big thank you to Brendon and the boys for getting the course back to a playable state and let’s hope the sun keeps shining all week.

🏌️ Match Play Semi-Final Report

What a spectacle! Brent McLennan has booked his place in the 2026 Club Banora Match Play Championship Final, defeating Simon Gates in the last of the semi-finals.

The golf was impressive, but the real story was Brent’s heroic commitment to fashion. In a majestic showing, Brent conquered all 18 holes wearing long pants—a gargantuan effort that will surely go down as one of the greatest endurance feats ever witnessed at Club Banora. Historians are already dusting off the record books.

Brent now marches into the final where he’ll take on Jared Brown, with the 2026 Club Banora Match Play Championship on the line. Best of luck to both players!

🔥 Shoutout of the Day

A massive congratulations to Dave Killion, who absolutely blitzed the field with a brilliant 42-point performance. Dave attacked the course from the opening hole, played with confidence, and left the rest of the field wondering what had just happened. A dominant display and a well-deserved winner! Probably not the smartest move Dave before the champs. I hope you don’t lose too many shots off your handicap.

📅 Looking Ahead

Mark it in the diary—Saturday, 1 August is the start of the 2026 Club Banora Championship.

It’s time to strap yourself in for four glorious rounds of stroke as players battle it out for the club’s biggest title of the year. Good luck to everyone competing, and may your drives be long, your putts be true, and your scorecards kind! 🏆⛳
