    Up until last year there was only the champs held in SEQ. Since the WA and Vic have added some champs, both of which were very successful.

    It takes someone to organise and run with the idea. Previously OzGolf has had a rather small NSW contingent that did not play a lot of games together. This appears to be changing, with a number of larger days in the first tee. NSW has also been well represented at the OzGolf champs in the past.

    Our monthly days seem to be going well, and I reckon they'll only get bigger so that we can have a few NSW "Majors" (events where you can get some sort of fancy bar in your signature saying you won - we generally need 16 players in attendance for an event to be given "major" status). There's one in 2 Sunday's time and one spot left if you're keen to come and join us.

    Also I think if there was a NSW Champs in the future it'd need to be outside of Sydney because it'd be near impossible to get on enough quality Sydney tracks on weekends.

    We had the NSW Champs; they were at Coolangatta Tweed in 2004/5.

    I thought open days at courses were always a bit of an issue for organising NSW days.

    That would be the biggest issue.....
    We'd have to look ate resort style venues outside of Sydney, which would be great.

    I've been watching the 1st tee post and the 30th of June i can't make, but i'm keen to play the July event. I agree getting a course for 30 odd players on a sunday can be tricky..

    Unless by "run" you mean "delegate the arrangement of accommodation and courses to other poor souls".

    Take it from me, you don't want to be the poor soul organising a champs by yourself!

    I'm kidding of course, but if you are going to do it get a bunch of guys to do it and delegate duties. It's really not that hard with enough prep time, and even easier with a bunch of blokes to bounce ideas off.

    Of course, any more champs and we will be probably stealing "attendees" off each other.

    When was it that that trip to Ocean Shores??? occured? I'm sure there was a trip organised a few years ago that had a few go down that way. Granted, I don't know if it got into the deep south of NSW, or even to the middle. But a few went to that.

    I think this is very much the case. The champs in Qld have always been organised by Qld'ers, and really when you have a few organising something like this they do it where they are familiar and near. The WA champs, did someone just decide to get one going? Was that the same with the Vic one? I'd say if you want one in NSW it would work fine. Just get a little committee together and start sorting it out.

    Wasn't there a Tassie trip a few years ago too?
