    LADIES GOLF IN QUEENSLAND A Journey Through the Decades 1950s — 2010 Golf is a game for life. Welcome to this story covering an era when women had their own national and state bodies, guiding the development of women’s golf with wisdom and expertise. Information and valuable knowledge was circulated to the golf clubs by these national and state bodies, ensuring all players, both junior and senior, were nurtured and supported. This is a personal story in which you will read about the culture of golf during this era, the work of the Australian Ladies Golf Union and the Queensland Ladies Golf Union, the major tournaments and promotions, my introduction to the game and my lifetime involvement as a player and as an administrator.

I was about 10 to 12 years old, during the early 1950s, and my parents, George and Agnes Tait, talked and played golf as often as time would permit. My dad owned a Sports Store in Brisbane - Tait’s Sports Store - located in the Public Curator’s Arcade in Edward Street, Brisbane. Dad was a very keen sports person and before playing golf he was a State ranked tennis player.

    Pine Lines, WA Granite Mountain, QLD Jindabyne, NSW Curtin University, WA Australian Disc Golf 2015 Annual Report President’s report Disc Golf in Australia saw some fantastic milestones achieved in 2015. Tournament attendance reached record numbers, new courses were installed in nearly every state and the sport was included in a schools program throughout the whole year. The ADG Tour kicked off with the Aussie Open, brain child of Chris Finn, the first PDGA major in the southern hemisphere. Attendance from some of the top pros gave Australian Disc Golfers the chance to see first-hand the level of play they are capable of. The Australian Disc Golf Tour was very well attended in 2015. The tour returned to South Australia after an 8 year hiatus. A very keen and motivated local crew put on an event in the historical town of Gawler (North of Adelaide), Australian Disc Golf is looking to support South Australia with additional events in 2016. The Gold Coast continued where it left off last year and had another big event, with travellers coming from around Australia. There were also record attendances at the NSW Open, Vic Open and QLD Championships. The future of events in Australia is looking very bright indeed. After the successful trial of a 3 day Australian Disc Golf Championships in 2014, this year’s event will again be run over 3 days at the Poimena Disc Golf course in Hobart. Tournament Director Richard Sampson has been working hard on making sure this is one of the best events yet. The ADG also implemented some changes to the Australian Disc Golf Tour for 2016.
