In the event of anything happening on the course, whether it be slow play or players hitting up on you, the standard operating procedure is, members should always call the Pro Shop (5457 0900) first. They can take action on the incident happening on the course. Members of the match committee can also assist where required, but rather than risk personal injuries, please follow the Standard Operating Procedure for all golf related matters.

Alexander Procopis with a score of 45 won the day with best overall score. In absolute perfect conditions, we had 129 players vying to be the inaugural Mal Robertson Champion.
