General Update

We are buzzing!
Our 2023 Gosnells Senior Open was held yesterday with a full field of 120 players (and a waiting list), which indicates the growing popularity of this event. Thank you to the generosity of Caralee Medical Group (via club member Lino Scartozzi) for their sponsorship of this event.
Wow - what a day it was!
I have been approached countless times by our own members and visitors (from RFGC, RPGC, Wanneroo, Harvey, Hartfield and the Vines) around the course and in the clubhouse, commenting on the terrific state of our course conditions, the event and the food served after.
I reiterate the same message as last week's newsletter - we have so many reasons to be a proud member of GGC.
This morning, I had a quiet chat with a few top players in the State and many reiterated the same opinion - they couldn't believe how great our course is for our flagship event. Particularly, the play and conditions of our greens.
I also want to take this opportunity to advise members that the cycle of our course/greens runs through the year and we will soon come into dormancy and winter weather. It is the cycle (similar to other golf courses) but we hope to continue improving it with peaks during our flagship events. This is one of the peak times so please enjoy it as much as you can.
Let's ride this wave of positivity in the Club and invite your friends to come and play and enjoy our hospitality off the course. We have Friday night dining this week (Friday 28 April) and Mother's Day Buffet Breakfast on Sunday 14 May.
Good luck to all players competing in our flagship GGC Open today and tomorrow.
Happy Eid al-Fitr for all our members celebrating today.

The 2023 GGC Senior Open winner for men is Michael Lucas (Harvey GC) and winner for women is Kymberley Wilson (GGC).

Thank you to Caralee Medical Centre (and club member Lino Scartozzi) for your sponsorship of this event. The event was a full field of players (with a waiting list) and we have received an overwhelming positive feedback on the course conditions and event.

Thank you to all committee and staff involved in the running of the event.

Longest Day Challenge Completed - 19 April

A marathon of 72 holes for Mason and Nariko - both achieving the feat for the Longest Day Challenge on Weds, 19 April.

Thanks to generous donors, together, they have raised over $3000 for the cause.

They both teed off at 6.20am and finished at 5.07pm.

Well done Mason and Nariko!

We are very proud of what both of you have achieved.

Special message from Chairman of Greens

Members,

Signature events for the club are being held over this weekend - the Gosnells Senior Open yesterday [21st April] & Gosnells Open this weekend [22nd & 23rd April]. The Grounds staff have done an amazing job and spent countless hours in arranging for the course to be presented in its best possible condition. Yet we have had two instances last Saturday & Thursday where members who were unable to control their frustrations have taken divots out of the greens. These members have tried to hide behind anonymity & not report their actions to the General Manager or anyone from Match, Greens or the Board.

We believe we have identified the group responsible for the divot last Saturday morning & will be speaking to them shorty. We strongly suggest that the member or group responsible for the divot on Thursday self-report immediately. Playing partners of the group know who committed the divot. You may not want to dob in your mate, therefore speak to this person & have them contact the club. Please do the right thing by the club.

It is best to self-report any damage on any day as that will definitely go in your favour, rather than being questioned on the matter.

Members, this is your course, we are doing our best to present it in the best condition possible each & every day yet we are hampered by individuals who believe they can do what they like to the course. This is not acceptable.

Terry Gale

Chairman of Greens
