Thanks to generous support and sponsorship of the Noosa Golf Club our Club was able to run another very successful social golf day.
Headed up again by a sub-committee led by Tony Jedynak and Bart Jaques, the event attracted only 72 players this year, which made for a speedy and comfortable day for all.
This year we were blessed with good weather and a great turn out by Players, Coaches and Support Staff, Club Members & Supporters and our valued Sponsors. We also welcomed many new Sponsors and Supporters and we hoped that they all had a great day.
To run an enjoyable social event you need to find a way to ensure all participants are made welcome and can enjoy some benefits throughout the day. This was made easier due to the generous support of the following sponsors who contributed not only their time but prizes.
Noosa Golf Club
Noosa Golf Club Pro Shop
Zachary’s Pizza & Bar
RACV Noosa Resort
Markris Foods
Noosa Outlook Prestige Meats
BakersDelight
Noosa Heads Surf Club

Rococo’s Bistro + Bar

Hotel Laguna Noosa
Great Eastern Motor Inn, Gympie – Derek Connolly
JD Constructions – Tony Fitzpatrick
Miss MoneyPenny Restaurant – Ben Walsh
Heaps of prizes were on offer and spread throughout the players, which ensured maximum benefits for all. The top 7 Teams all recorded Nett Scores under 60 and were separated by less than 3 shots over 18 holes, a terrific and competitive result. Best Score including 12 birdies was by The Great Eastern Team of Derek Connolly, Mick & Ben Byrne and Bryce Smith with 50
For the first time Zachary’s Pizza and Bar sponsored our Betting Hole and offered a Free Pizza once a week for 6 Months for any player who aced! the Par 3, 5th Hole. Measured at 128 metres two players got very close, Grant Birkett and Chris Wood, both winning Pizza Vouchers!
Everyone who participated in the day is to be commended on their respect for both the course and personnel at the Noosa Golf Club. Particular mention to the Noosa Senior Players for their support of the event and their exemplary behaviour, we are very proud of the way you all conducted yourselves during the day.
Our Club has established a valuable relationship with the Noosa Golf Club and we look forward to the Noosa Tigers Golf Day as a popular event on the Football and Golfing Calendar each year prior to the Season’s kick-off! …. so put Sunday 26th February in your diary for 2017.
Thanks to Scott McKenzie and our new Coach Sam Faure who spoke at the presentation updating those present with the progress of the Club and introducing any new players, as they prepare for Season 2016.
Thanks to all the many helpers on the day, particularly the staff of the Golf Club, special thanks to Puck, Jacqui and Tom behind the bar and Greg Gibbs on the registration table.
Bart Jacques manned the Betting Hole and was not shy in extracting donations from players who vied for the chance of a Hole in One or Nearest the Pin and a ticket in our Golf Day Raffle Prize – A Gympie Experience for 2 Persons, courtesy of Derek & Cath Connolly at the Great Eastern Motor Inn.
So take your hats off everyone and pat yourselves on the back, because we can’t wait to welcome you again next year!! ….. we look forward to organising the Golf Day in February 2017. Many thanks Tony & Bart.
