Sunday 28/10

  • Prize giving.
The entry fee into the tournament is $75 each. This creates a cash prize pool of $1100 plus $100 for golf balls for minor daily prizes(closest to pin etc).
The $1100 prize pool will be divided up so that all 16 players receive a cash prize which ranges from $200 1st prize to $20 for the last place getter.

As far as costs go the accommodation is $100 per person for the weekend. There could be cleaning costs to follow.
We are hiring 4 villas with their own amenities.
To keep the food simple I'm suggesting you bring as much of your own as you want. Lunches can be provided by the club and the same with dinner. There is a cafe that can take care of breakfasts and takeout pizza / burgers etc as well as evening meals.
The same for booze. Bring your own. I will pick up some bourbon for the late night sessions so all you need to worry about is beer and/or wine. There is a liquor store in Matarangi but it will be expensive so buy before you hit the Peninsula.
Accommodation and entry fee's will need to be paid in advance Can you deposit $175 into my bank account by November 19 please.Shane Rush - Kiwibank - 389004 0368030 00.
Also, with the recent scratching of Trev from the tourney we still have two slots open to anyone else out there that might be keen. I know Ben mentioned a mate of his a while ago.
