MIXING IT WITH THE BEST IN THE MARANOA.

SAND GREENS turn again! Every 4 years the District Championships returns to a Sand Greens course. This year Mitchell Golf Club hosted the very successful event with 88 nominations for the Foursomes event which precedes the Stroke play Championship, in which there were 97 nominations. The weather was perfect for the event - cool nights and warm clear days.

The Foursomes Event is somewhat of a ‘practice’ round especially for grass green players! And probably fair to say that some benefited from the day more than others. With tee up or preferred lie through the green in place, it was going to make for some exceptional scores over the tournament. A shotgun start insured an early return to the clubhouse.
