District Pennant Final Success
The inaugural SBG Golf (SCSBDGA) Pennant Final was played on Sunday 5th September at Beerwah Golf Club. The District Committee saw an opportunity to bring the best teams from the Glasshouse Mountains and Sunshine Coast pennant competitions to challenge for the title of undisputed District Pennant Champions.
The personnel at Beerwah Golf Club impressed everyone for the way they made the day a success. The course was prepared superbly. The free BBQ was running hot all day and the after-match meal was excellent. It was a wonderful day for all the golfers and spectators.
An important component of the District’s overall strategy is developing Junior Golf. As such, each of the winning clubs receive a $500 Junior Development Grant.
Based on the interest and success of this event, there will be an expanded SBG Golf District Pennant competition in 2022.
