February 2025

​

This year was the 35th anniversary of our Annual Sponsored Watering Tournament. Kevin Hinman (a very active member) organised the first couple of tournaments but then tragically died while on holiday in Australia in 1992. The trophies were donated by his family and have been played for every year since 1993 for the top Men’s and Women’s Stableford scores.

 

This year’s Hinman Trophy winners were Maryanne Glasson from Hokitika and John McKinnon from Bottle Lake. Best gross scores were our own Jed Robertson with 69 and his mother Lyn with a 78.

 

We’ve also enjoyed the support from the Harewood Hackers who have played the Amberley Ambassadors for more than 25 consecutive years. 

 

A big thanks to Jason Murray for organising his first Watering Tournament and to all the other members who generously gave their time on the day to make this Tournament a special one for the Club.

 

We have a small group of members who have taken on the task of cleaning and maintaining our BBQ area and plan to start holding the odd social event - watch this space.

 

Happy golfing

Mark
