Results are in from our inaugural Matariki Stableford Tournament held on Friday.
A great day was had at the MGC with 93 players in the field for this new event, many commending the quality of the course so thanks to Shay & Jayden and all the volunteers for your efforts amidst the wet weather we've had recently.
Our 9 Matariki Star Holes were well received with many players enjoying the chance at an extra prize with the multitude of accuracy challenges across the course.
Matariki Star Hole Winners: G. Marshall / C. McCullough / G. McIver / B. Ward / Z. Small / R. Peters / B. Craig / H. Potaka / R. Rooney
In the main event, our 18 hole stableford competition, the course was master of many but we did have a few shining stars out there to claim podium finishes across our divisions.
