Kicking off Friday 29th April, and finishing on Sunday 1st of May. Come and join us in the beautiful Sunshine Coast sun. Make the most of the Labour Day long weekend for some cracking golf, with some cracking blokes (and lasses)!

A bit of a mud map for those unfamiliar with the area:
https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=zrU2eW1hJCpk.knJten8ae0GU&usp=sharing

Accommodation:
Friday and Saturday night. Ozgolf goes Sunshine Coast Cosmopolitan! In the heart of vibrant Coolum, across the road from the beach.

http://www.coolumbeachresort.com/

I have reserved:
8x 2 bedroom apartments. Each apartment has a room with 1 queen bed, and a room with 2 beds. This gives us capacity for up to 24 people. Charge will be $94 per room, per night. If you have the room to your self you pay the full $94. If you share a room it is $47ea.

We will need to find a few people who will take their own room (preferably 8). Please let me know your preferred option, preferred roomy if you want to share, or if you are happy to be randomly paired.


The Golf:
Friday: Coolum’s least dinosaur’d golf course. Mt Coolum GC:

http://www.mtcoolumgolf.com/golf/

Round will be social only, and we are looking to put together a champs “Friday special event”.

Costs:
$45 walking
$40 per cart

Tee time will be: 11:00 first group

Round is social only (no comp)

MT COOLUM FACT SHEET: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B0epqScMYd6aOEpwZlZEXzd1bXM

Saturday: Did anyone say swanky?? The jewel of the Noosa golfing world – Noosa Springs:

http://www.noosasprings.com.au/golf/

Use all the clubs in your bag here. The layout rewards shotmaking and strategic play – the Big Dog is not always the best option around the lakes here.

Costs:
$115 inc cart, and egg and bacon muffin + coffee pre round.
An additional $7 (on the day) will see you in the open comp

Tee time is 11:00am first group.

NOOSA SPRINGS FACT SHEET: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B0epqScMYd6ac1ZJY3BWWlhsNjg

Sunday: Bringing it home strong – one of the Sunshine Coast’s finest resort courses – Twin Waters GC

http://www.twinwatersgolfclub.com.au/

In my opinion, one of the Sunshine Coast’s “funnest” courses, in a really pleasant setting.

Costs:
$100 inc cart, and burger and chips after the round
An additional $10 (on the day) will see you in the open comp

Tee time is 8:30am first group.

TWIN WATERS FACT SHEET: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1ADG3VITb4JCPbg5NTaFPUZM02ASK2mmshxCfx9C34 Dk

NOTE: All golf to be prebooked and includes fees for prizes (overall / NTP etc). I will register interest below and deposit / payments paid early would be most appreciated. Some people may get cheaper rates for reciprocal etc, I will adjust accordingly ON THE DAY if applicable, and refund then.

Course ratings:
Mt Coolum GC– Blue Par 72, Scr 71, Slope 130
Noosa Springs GC – Blue Par 72, Scr 71, Slope 126
Twin Waters GC – Blue Par 72, Scr 72, Slope 126


Additional Information:
Flight Information:
Flying into Brisbane leaves drive of approx. 75min to the Coolum area.
Flying into Sunshine Coast leaves a drive of approx. 10min to the Coolum area. Flights are available to both Sydney and Melbourne into the Sunshine Coast

And the fine print:
1. You will not be considered as entered until you supply your Full name, club and Golflink.
2. Deposits (min 20%) to be paid by end Feb. Remaining by April 14. Late entries will be accepted pending availability.
3. All rounds for championship purposes will be scored as stableford.
4. We do this for fun, so don't be a dick if we don't quite have what you want, or you don't like it.

No problem mate, added with pencil.

As an option, there are other accommodation options at Coolum Beach club. We got a little discount, might be able to do the same for you if you call them.

Sunday would also like to know whether the Bundaberg Pizza Shop will deliver to the Coolum Beach Resort. He probably already knows whether the other place he rang last year delivers.

Benno, I'm a starter for everything, with carts I think. I was looking for a Solo Man picture to insert, but I lost interest, so I'll just say I'm a Solo Man for accommodation.

I'll gauge interest closer to the time, but if anyone wants to stay extra time and play somewhere else either Thursday or Monday I might be interested in that.

Is Monday a public holiday in Qld?

Just had a bit of a look at the Noosa Springs scorecard. Approx 650m different between the men's and woman's course. Some holes there is a 70m difference.

I take 2 things from that:
1. We might be having a lot of jugs shouted when we are done.
2. This champs has Shaz's name written all over it.

Just had a bit of a look at the Noosa Springs scorecard. Approx 650m different between the men's and woman's course. Some holes there is a 70m difference.

I take 2 things from that:
1. We might be having a lot of jugs shouted when we are done.
2. This champs has Shaz's name written all over it.

Payments received from Jim and Waza. Thanks guys.

I have put a deposit on 6x 2 bedroom apartments at Coolum beach resort, and released 2 back to them. From memory there are 2x 2br and 3x 1br rooms left if you want to organise your own thing.

I need to get a deposit together for Twin Waters soon, so if everyone could drop a deposit ($50 will be fine), that would be awesome.

OK, accommodation update. Based on current interest, have put together a roomy scenario (just to see how it all fits together).

So by this, I have booked 3 apartments for 3 nights, 2 for 2 nights (1 currently empty), and one for 1 night.

Have a spare spot in room 3, for anyone who wants to share, otherwise I will have to ask someone to go a solo.

That leaves one unallocated 2bed apartment if anyone wants to grab it, other wise I will release it next week. The resort also has 2 spare 1 bed apartments left if needed.

Cheers,
Ben

It could kinda work. Move you to share with M3J Fri/Sat night, on your own Sunday. Would free up a solo room in a 2 bedder.

Perfect solution would be to find someone to grab the room you have vacated, or move Dave from a 1 bed apartment into his own room in a 2 bedder.

We are full for Friday (as in 4 full groups). Since is a best ball teams event, we'll put out the call for one more to at least make a 2-some.

I have 1 spare spot on both days of weekend golf - no dramas there.

I am kinda full in Accommodation though. Everyone has neatly slotted in. But what I can do is see if the resort has a solo room - costs a little more but probably the best option (think around $140 a night vs $97 a night solo in a 2bed apartment). There are other accommodation options within a 100m, happy to help you find something.

Have a think, let me know - will certainly do what I can to help get you here.

Cheers,
Ben

Ben, don't do anything yet, I can travel up at late notice. Still 2 weeks to go, stuff happens and someone might need to pull out, keep me as first reserve. If nothing happens, we can revisit a couple of days out. Cheers

No worries mate. We do have room Sat/Sun/Mon golf if you wanted to do that as well. I have an enquiry in with where we are see what nights rooms are available as well - just in case.

Twin Waters must be paid by Wednesday 27th, so I have to finalise numbers by then.

Cheers,
Ben

Edit: too excited and out by a week....

I can't believe that it is this weekend, and I can't believe how flat I feel about it. That said, I feel flat about lots of things at the moment; I guess being a cripple does that to you. I should've played yesterday, when I had the chance, but I just couldn't be bothered. Maybe I'll have a hit on the Nudgee GC range on Friday, to get the body moving. I also feel guilty about not coaching my junior footy side this weekend.

What time will people be going to the course on Saturday? I'd like to bring some beer up directly from Brisbane, but it might be a bit hard to get up there in time to get it in someone's fridge.

I am flat out with work and uni. Will be good to get away for a couple of nights!

Do we have a draw for Saturday, or are we going to do one on Friday night? I have used golf balls to do a draw before with some success.

Wait until you see the first, and last place trophies! Will give you something to get excited about, either way!

First group! Woo Hoo!

I haven't met or played with Rascal, but I'll find a way to get him to spray his drive on the Long Drive Hole (have we got one?) so I can get the early lead. I don't have to worry about HB. I can sow seeds in his head at Bribie on Thursday. Not only did I not win anything at the SA Champs, I didn't even get on any NTP or Long Drive lists back then.

If the following groups see a ludicrously short Long Drive Marker, you'll know it is mine.

You've got nothing to worry about unless the long drive hole goes hard right.

Had a really shite weekend off the tee as well,Ardrossan I drove it really well, so went up Monday afternoon to the driving range at the club.
Hit about 20 straight down the guts and long (for me). Pissed myself off so went over to work on the short game.
