    Default Champs in Sydney

    Could it happen? Would certainly attract a few different faces.

    Thoughts?

    Andrew beat me to it, I was going to suggest champs could work at Magenta/Kooindah/Pac Dunes. A Friday pre-champs pizzling could be held at Newcastle. Flights on jetstar are cheap into Newcastle.

    I'd be there for sure. The wife & kids might even come too and we'd make a holiday road trip out of it.

    I moved from Darwin to just north of Newcastle in a July.....and near killed me. You can stick your winter champs up your bums unless its played above the Tropic line.

    So, let me get this straight... Winter champs in Newcastle = Blake won't come.

    Does the "last man standing" include winter champs?

    Kooindah now have accom and the digs at magenta are top notch for about @220 that can have 3 bedrooms.

    I'm sure some diehard interstaters would still make the trip but we'd get nowhere near 40 or 50 punters.

    Have also discussed this Koo - magenta thing as a mid year winter champs or some other fancy name.
    The mid-year Masters.

    Sounds great. One thing the champs doesn't have is Toukley RSL.

    Put me in pencil.

    I like SMS's idea floated at last years Champs/ Mid-year Champs in NQ. This place is paradise at that time of year.

    As much as I prefer Paradise Palms to Mirage, I think the latter would be a better option to prevent any dramas with travel as it's a 30 minute trip between Palm Cove (Paradise Palms) and Port Douglas (Sea Temple/ Links & Miarge).

    I thought Mirage was a sh1thole nowadays? - Didn't Ned and Russell play there recently ?- maybe they can give a report..........if it's OK a Sea Temple/Mirage double would be good - plenty of cheapish accom in Port Douglas - long way from Cairns airport though !


    and for the record I reckon a NSW or VIC Champs would be fantastic !!........but none of this 'mid year masters' mumbo jumbo - make it a proper ozgolf champs.........
