2008 Tainui Annual Golf Day |
A total of 28 players turned out on Sunday 15th June to support this year's 2008 Tainui Golf Day held at the Logan City Golf Club at Meadowbrook.
A mixed group of ladies and blokes, from local and interstate; including self-confessed hackers, amateurs, and pros ranging in age from 16 to 65 (and with handicaps from 8 to 36) tee'd off from the first hole through to the ninth and then once more around the block to complete the 18 hole Ambrose (four ball best ball) game.
Despite anticipated dogged determination and some fierce competitive edge; these were nowhere to be seen on the day, instead there was lots of laughs with some hard case driving, putting, and plenty of lost balls.
Nobody really took their game seriously, it was really about joining up with mates, supporting our fundraiser, and breathing in some fresh air and getting heaps of exercise that appealed to the majority of players.
A truly enjoyable and fun day was had by all with many a golfing yarn, joking and laughter shared over lunch, drinks and during the prize giving presentation.
The winners list was as follows:
Mens Longest Drive - Mark-Allen
Ladies Longest Drive - Margaret
Nearest the Pin on 3rd - Rayvin
Nearest the Pin on 17th - Len
Haggle - Mick, Mark, Len, Koro
Haggle - Harold, Tracy, Kev, Toni
1st Winners - Margaret, Tony, Hori, Haki (Polo, fish and cap)
2nd - Hemi, Rayvin, Anthony, Uncle
3rd - Nick, Koro, Mark, Len
4th - James, James, Rob, Lawrence
A special note of thanks is extended to:
- Steve Bennett who negotiated the green fees, buggies, and function room through Jamie and Craig in the pro-shop, and Zen in club house.
- Kevin Nelson for overseeing the sign-ons, tee-offs, and adding up the score-cards.
Marama Haggie for her ongoing hard work and organisation of this annual event.
- The ringawera (TTHT Committee) who came together with some awesome and delicious kai to feed the hungry golfers.
- Sponsors of donated prizes were Kevin Nelson, Richelle & Pani Hokianga, Hana Nepia, Hine Whiunui, Aloha & Kevin Gray, Toni Wardlaw, Rita Tumata, Godfrey Ramsbotham from Shirtworx and Anthony .
Thank you all for the wonderful array of prizes including smoked fish, cosmetics, toiletries, general and personal accessories, portable chairs, alcohol, caps, stubby holders, stationery, tamariki packs, polo shirts, and ladies t-shirts........everyone got a prize!
Last but not least, thank you to each and every one of the 28 players who in the true spirit of golf, dedicated their time, moni-aroha, and friendship on the day.
As announced during the prize giving presentation, 10% of the day's takings shall go towards a local up and coming sports person or individual who has made significant sporting contributions within the Brisbane Maori community. The committee is currently deciding on how best to progress this donation by the most appropriate means.
