Juniors
This week, Junior golfers participated in an Age Event. This event involved children teeing off from differing locations according to their age. Congratulations to all players, most especially Max Corsetti who showed significant improvement.
A special congratulations to Will and Sophie Martell who were selected for the 2015 Wide Bay Schools golf team. Their dad Brett would have made the team too, apart from the fact that he is a little too old and a lot terrible.
