Trans Tasman Golf Day

We have a winner

SSAA Convention 2019 Trans – Tasman Golf Championship, sponsored by Visy Boxes & More

The Cairns Golf Course proved to be an exciting golf game for this year’s Ambrose tournament. The Ambrose format is very popular with SSAA Members as it allows all standards of golfers to mix and play together with equal enjoyment irrespective of ability. It helps promote teamwork as one score is recorded per hole. This type of game normally minimises the amount of time looking for lost balls. However, there were a few trips back to the Golf Shop for additional balls which may question this theory.

Once again a Golf cart race ensued with no clear winner. However, there was a clear winner for the golf game this year after last year’s draw. With a score of 44 the team of Lee Cameron from Port Douglas Storage, Shay McQuade from Universal Storage Containers and Andrew Eastwood, from U-Store-It and SSAA Board member collectively got Australia over the line for a win.

It was a thirsty day’s work with Visy Boxes & More, Sonja Becke making numerous trips to the clubhouse for refreshments for the teams on the course. Even the Kiwi team’s mascot got on board with the Aussie team once the winners were identified. The winners were presented with their trophy at the Gala dinner. l
