CLUB CHAMPS – WHY IS EVERY CLUB SO DIFFERENT? 🏆

Every golf club has its own take on Club Championships. But which format actually gets it right?

Some clubs go with 4 consecutive Saturdays of stroke play, testing consistency over an entire month.

Others run Saturday and Sunday stroke rounds, with players seeded just like the pros.

And then there are the traditionalists – 2 stroke rounds followed by a Top 32 match play knockout, where one bad hole can change everything.

But it begs the question…

Are we making Club Champs too complicated?

• Is 4 Saturdays too long, tying up the course and limiting visitor access? • Is traditional match play becoming outdated, or is it what makes Club Champs special? • Should the best players battle it out over 36 or 72 holes, just like the pros? • And most importantly, how do we get MORE members involved in what should be the jewel in the crown of every golf club?

Club Champs should be one of the biggest events on the club calendar. So how do we make it competitive, inclusive and something every member wants to be part of?

What's your preferred Club Champs format? And what would you change about the way your club runs it?

Let's hear it – the traditionalists, the modernisers and everyone in between! 👇

CLUB CHAMPS TIP FOR 90% OF US 🏆

Bogey is your friend.

The winner in every grade usually isn’t the player who makes the most birdies.
It’s the player who has the least BIG numbers.

So here’s the boring (winning) game plan:
• Take your medicine
• Play away from trouble
• Hit the middle of the green
• Two-putt and move on

Sounds easy… so why do we all rock up and play like we’re teeing it up at The Masters?

Be honest: what’s the hole where you usually blow up in club champs?

CLUB CHAMPS SEASON 🏆

Every club around Australia is either starting their Club Champs or they’re already in the thick of it.

Honest question: why do we put SO much weight on this one event?

Is it because:
• The honour board (your name on the wall forever)
• It’s the only time the comp feels like real pressure
• Bragging rights. Simple.
• Tradition (and we’re all suckers for it)

Spicy one: if there was NO honour board, would you care as much?

That's why Federal Golf Club (ACT) deserves a spot on your hit list.

Quick hits:
Classic Canberra golf with a proper layout that rewards good decisions
Great option if youre doing a golf weekend and want something more than the usual tourist track
One of those venues that feels calm, established, and built for golfers who love the craft

If you've played Federal, what's the one thing you'd tell a mate before they book a tee time?

🏌🏻💰 APPEARANCE FEES IN GOLF 💰🏌🏻

Do we really still need to be paying top line golfers appearance fees to travel and play in other markets?

Example: a DP World Tour event in India has reportedly paid a few big names to show up, so they’ve already had more money than most before they even teed off.

We saw the same thing with the Australian Open having to pay to get Rory out.

At what point does being an 🌏 international player in an international sport actually kick in?

Quick hits:
• If you’re a top player, is travel just part of the job, or fair to get paid extra?
• Does it grow golf globally, or just widen the gap?
• Are we basically admitting only 2 tours really matter?

What do you reckon?
A) Pay them, it’s good business
B) Only for brand new markets
C) No appearance fees, earn it on the course

⛳️ CORED GREENS + FULL GREEN FEES… fair or not?

You rock up for a round, pay full freight… then find out the greens were cored yesterday.

I get it, courses HAVE to do maintenance. No one wants bumpy, unhealthy greens long-term.

But here’s the question:
Should visitors get a discount when greens are freshly cored?

My take:
• If it’s not disclosed at booking/check-in, discount is fair.
• If it’s clearly disclosed beforehand, you’ve got the choice.

What do you reckon?
A) Always discount after coring
B) Only discount if not disclosed
C) No discount, it’s part of golf
