Flett Black Memorial 54 hole par: Jock Parish R/up: Steve Seckold George Waller 54 hole Stableford: Doug Williams R/up: Frank Fayle
Golf was held at the Waimairi Beach Golf Club and it didn’t disappoint with some fantastic weather, one of the mornings it absolutely bucketed down, flooding the greens and then stopped around 10am. The greens staff managed to get the course playable and we were able to get going at 12pm and get a full round in.
Crocket and Lewis 18 hole Stableford: Richard Markham R/up: Russell Mayn
As always it was amazing to see many familiar faces and encouraging to see new ones as well.

Arty Pitcher Cup Visitors 54 hole nett: John Niwa R/up: Andrew Borg
The fishing was held in Kaikoura, they went out on Monday for a half day, Tuesday and Wednesday for full days and another half day on Thursday. Reports are the fishing was amazing with huge Blue Cod, Blue Nose and Groper coming over the side. Apparently there was plenty of burley going over the side on the first day as the sea was a bit choppy. Next year the tournament is being held in Whangarei and we invite all to come along to get involved in an amazing event that has been running for over 60 years, you won’t be disappointed.
