We certainly needed the rain on the course, fortunately not too much of it!!
Course:
Daniel is very happy with the greens. He say's they are coming back nicely, probably one of the better coring jobs.
Unfortunately last Saturday night 18 posts were smashed out at number 15 green, but, thanks to help from the Bayley family, and our great team of greens staff and volunteers, the post were replaced on Monday. Unfortunately we have no idea who the culprits were, but we are investigating and a report has been made to the police.
Ladies tournament: Thursday 17 April.
We will be hosting a ladies teams tournament next Thursday so the course will be closed between 8.00am - 1.30pm.
There are 21 teams playing in the tournament with teams from Northern Wairoa to Kaitaia so it will be a great day.

The course is still busy, so please make sure you book a tee time for yourselves via the Proshop (09) 4028207 or on-line www.golf.co.nz or the Golf NZ App.
If you are wanting a cart, you must, make sure to book with the Proshop (09) 4028207 asap because of the limited supply.
