Please read and return your comments to me at [email protected]. Reply even if you are happy with it as it is, or with comments for possible inclusion. On another note it is pleasing to see Sanctuary Lakes Golf Club getting on top of their debt. I have been given approval to include an announcement given to SLGC members from their Presi- dent. There is plenty of room for both golf clubs and I congratulate SLGC on their current suc- cess. Dear Members, When this club executed its transition to an independent Board in June of 2013, it did so encumbered but supported by access to an interest free financial facility for a set period to enable the club to continue via- bly whilst the new Board implemented its longer term business plan. Whilst transition had occurred, the potential consequences of the club not meeting its commitment to repay the facility by the March 31, 2015 deadline continued to hinder our progress. As stated at the most recent AGM, it was the strategy of this Board to divest of a number of land parcel assets surplus to our requirements to enable the repayment to occur. In what has been a lengthy and complex exercise, the club has now entered into a contract of sale for these parcels at true market value to an independent developer new to the Sanctuary Lakes community enabling the complete repayment of its outstanding debt to the outgoing developer. Members need to appreciate the significance of this event. We as a club are now truly independent of its past without any potential encumbrances or obligations. It should also be noted therefore that the rumours surrounding the sale of the driving range, alterations to the course including the touted reconfiguration of the 17th & 18th holes, a reduction to a 9-hole course amongst others have been and are totally false, spread by those with agendas that were not in the best inter- ests of the club. The Board would like to acknowledge the support received by the Sanctuary Lakes Resort Services throughout this process. The Board intends to host a Member's Forum in the near future to provide the op- portunity to discuss the significance of this occasion and our plans for the future of our club. Thank you. Ron Gauci Chairman - Sanctuary Lakes Club CARE OF THE COURSE Members the care of the course is everyone's responsibility. Please take the time to repair the pitch mark, repair the divot and rake the bunker.

Winter Rules What A Golfer Needs To Know Just because it's winter doesn't mean you should be playing "winter rules." That's a misconception many amateurs have about playing this time of year. The Kikuyu maybe coming dormant and the lies may not always be the best, but if it's a dry, sunny day, you're probably not allowed relief. As Bryan Jones, co-vice chairman of the PGA Rules Committee, explains, the decision to allow "lift, clean and place" has little to do with temperature and everything to do with course condi- tions.

  • History & Honour Roll –
    History & Honour Roll – Australian Men’s Stroke Play and Amateur Championship History In 1894 the Melbourne Golf Club (later known as the Royal Melbourne Golf Club) began holding an annual event known as the Victorian Golf Cup, held at the Lions of Caulfield. The 1894 event was played on 5, 7 and 9 November and was won by Louis Whyte, playing off a handicap of 6, with two woods, three lofting irons and a putter. After the formation of the Australian Golf Union (AGU) in 1898, the Victorian Golf Cup became the Amateur Championship of Australia and was held under the AGU’s auspices. Winners of the Victorian Golf Cup were recognised officially to be Australian Amateur Champions. Currently, the original Victorian Golf Cup trophy is awarded to the winner of the Victorian Amateur Championship. In 1906 the first 16 amateurs in the Open Competition played off for the Amateur Championship of Australia. The competition format was match play, each match being played over 18-holes up until the semi-finals and finals, which were played over 36-holes. In that year the first prize for the Championship was a gold medal and such trophy as may be provided by the AGU. Second prize was a trophy valued at two pounds and two shillings. In 1921, the Challenge Cup, presented by The Right Honourable Lord Forster, was awarded to the Australian Amateur Champion. In the early post World War II years there were no qualifying rounds, and all entrants played match play. In 1948, 149 players competed in the event.
