Time is upon us again for the famed OZgolf Qld Champs, and as the Barnum Brothers may have said, we are taking the show on the road!
The prestigous Duncan Bennett Memorial Trophy will again be up for grabs as golfers across the country compete to be Qld's top Ozgolfer.

Accommodation:
Friday and Saturday night
http://www.coralcovegolfclub.com/resort
$320 for 2 nights in a villa (2br 1 bath - sleeps up to 4 - self contained) - That's a stella $40/night per person
$540 for 2 nights in a condo (3br 3bath - sleeps up to 7 self contained) - That's also an awesome $39/night per person
There is a restaurant / tavern on site, as well as a pool, BBQs and tennis courts.
I have reserved 5 villas (20 people). If you want to share with less than a full quota, you are probably best booking another villa / condo yourself. Also, the accommodation is a 2 night deal, so cheap rates are valid only for the 2 night stay.
For those thinking of taking the family and want their own digs, resort can be contacted on 1800 356 722
I also have room for 8 at my place for those who want to break the return trip up Sunday night.
