2018 QLD Championships - Brisbane

[benno_r]

Good evening fellow Ozgolfers,

I would like to welcome you to the 2018 Ozgolf Queensland championships in exciting Bris-vegas!

The prestigious Duncan Bennett Memorial Trophy will again be up for grabs as golfers across the country compete to be Qld's top Ozgolfer. Will you be able to defeat last years Champion, LeftyHoges, and get your name on the converted trophy?

Kicking off Thursday 13th September, and finishing on Monday 17th September, we aim to bring some of QLD's finest golf. The best part is we are paying the weekend fields during club championship season, so the courses will be as premo as they get.

THE GOLF:
Thursday 13th September - Kooralbyn Valley CC: http://ramadaresortkooralbynvalley.com.au/golf/
24 spots, 11:40am first group. Carts included. And since we like to hit the ground running, we are entered in the famous "Copperhead" Back Marker challenge.
$75 inc cart and prize fee

Friday 14th September - Royal Queensland GC: http://www.rqgolf.com.au/cms/welcome/
28 Spots, 10:00am first group. Walking only. Also includes the terrifying 2-ball Banana Cup best ball multiplier
$170 inc prize fee

Saturday 15th September - Pacific Harbour GC: http://www.pacificharbourgolf.com.au/golf/
28 spots, 11:45am first group. Carts, comp fee and pre-round burger included.
CHAMPS Day 1
$90 inc prize fee.

Sunday 16th September - Brookwater GC: http://brookwater.com.au/golf/
28 Spots, 10:30am first group. Carts Included.
CHAMPS Day 2
$125 inc cart and prize fee

Monday 17th September - Royal Nudgee - North Course: http://www.nudgeegolf.com.au/welcome/
16 Spots, 8:20am first group. Walking or Carts - 4 carts booked
$45inc prize fee. $40/cart

The Prizes:
Long drive / Multiple NTP for balls every day. Daily cash prizes for 1st and 2nd (and maybe 3rd), overall podiums, and best gross. Value TBC, but the champ usually walks away with $400+.

ACCOMMODATION:
Bookings start Thursday night, through to Sunday night at Arena Apartments in vibrant West End: http://www.arenabrisbane.com.au/

Close to eateries, cafes, breweries - seems like a great place to let Bushy loose every night.

I have booked 4x 2bed room apartments - 3 in queen + 2x single config, and 1 with 2x singles in both rooms. Prices are:
Solo room - $110/night
Share room - $55/night per person

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 July. Remaining by End August. 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.

Payment by bank transfer - Please leave your user name and QLD as the message ie "QLD - username"

Oh shit! The above trip looks like it will be avoided, but now there is apparently some plot for me to go to Vienna for all of September. My project manager has my back, so we’ll see if we can hold it off a couple of weeks.

I’ll keep you all up to date, as I know that this event will mean nothing to all of you without my presence. No one has ever won the Qld Champs without beating AndyP, so does it really count if I’m not there?

Can you goto Vienna in November? I'm there for a few days for a training course...

[AndyP]

It seems highly unlikely. I can give you some tips for things to do while there though.

I'm sure The Champs will survive if you can't make it.

[BUSHY]

I'm sure The Champs will survive if you can't make it.

My liver might.

[henno]

Paid in full.

[AndyP]

I'm sure The Champs will survive if you can't make it.

For the first couple of days, maybe, but it’s hard to see people having much fun beyond that.

[benno_r]

Paid in full.

And received in full. Cheers.

Nude cartwheeling again ?

[thecollective]

Nude cartwheeling again ?

Is it too late to cancel?!!!!!?....last time there was something nude involved was my corporate golf day @ Hamilton Island, a sight that gives me nightmares to this day.

[Jono]

Flights booked! 😎

I can’t make the Royal Nudgee game on Monday as I’ll need to fly back Sunday evening.

Noted and updated.

[benno_r]

Welcome aboard the last spot - NSW's sneakiest flusha, TS!!

That gives us 27 for RQ and 28 for the weekend. Thanks all for supporting this event.

[PeteyD]

Awesome!!

[BUSHY]

Woohoo

Counting down the days. 4 weeks to go.

[Ferrins]

Hey Benno, can I be in the last group on Saturday please? Something has come up on that morning.

[AndyP]

I'm OUT








of Thursday's round.

When benno_r temporarily put me in the 4 person room, I was thinking that I might stay every night with you guys. But then I got moved out, and then work threw lots of work travel at me, so I am re-assessing the amount of time that I have away from home. As a result, I'll give the Thursday round a miss, and any dinner plans for Thursday and Sunday. I'm all in for Friday through to Sunday arvo though, including night activities. Plus the Nudgee round isn't an issue, as it is well within work/school hours.

[Steve57]

Balance paid Ben!

Parkruns are all 5k, with a 7am start in Qld. A lot of people walk or walk/jog for these.

[thecollective]

Thanks for confirming Andy, 5k jog all the way for me just very slow pace at the moment with a concrete left leg
