Thanks to the generous grants we received earlier this year, our junior program is now equipped better than ever.

The new training aids and practice equipment will go a long way in helping our young golfers build confidence, develop skills, and enjoy every moment on the course.

This investment supports not only the future of our juniors but also strengthens the future of golf in Port Augusta.

We’re incredibly grateful for the support that helps us continue growing opportunities for local kids in the game of golf.

🌧️ Weather fit for a duck! Not even drenching downpours could stop juniors Joe, Jack, and Koben from conquering their 9 holes — proving that a little rain only adds to the adventure. 🦆⛳

One of our young 9‑holers, Martin, hit an absolute cracker down towards the 14th green. It was tracking beautifully… until it headed straight for the trees on the right-hand side of the fairway.

Thinking it had kicked off a trunk, the group searched both the left and right sides — but the ball was nowhere to be found. Just as they were about to give up, they took one last look and checked around the base of the tree....

There it was — unbelievably — wedged between the bark and the trunk!

Not only was it a great shot, but it also created a perfect junior learning moment.

🤔 So, what is the ruling? In this situation, the ball is considered unplayable. A tree is a natural part of the course — not an obstruction, and therefore not something that provides free relief. When a ball becomes lodged between the bark and the trunk, it’s treated the same as any unplayable ball in the general area, meaning the player must take a one‑stroke penalty and proceed under Rule 19.

🏌🏻Week two of competition golf has been a huge step forward for many of our players, with several completing 18 holes for the very first time and delivered some outstanding scores along the way.

There was no 18‑hole competition held this Sunday, as a number of our players were away representing the club at other events.
