JUNIOR TOURNAMENT

During the month of JUNE and early JULY we were involved in 2 major tournaments that took place in the lower South Coast.  The first one was South Coast High School Championship which took place on the 22^nd June in Port Shepstone.  We sponsored 15 sleeves of Taylor Made Nomads golf balls.

 The second one was a Junior Tournament under the auspices of KZNGU directed by Shelagh Digby.  This ran over 3 days, on the 6^th July at Southbroom, Southern Natal Nomads represented by Mr Langa, on the 7^th July at Margate Country Club we were represented by  Bones Coertzen and Mr Langa on the 8^th July at Port Shepstone Country Club we were represented by Bones Coertzen and Howard Crouch and Mr Langa. We sponsored 45 sleeves of Taylor Made golf balls.

During the entire tournament Mr Langa gave a brief talk to encourage and motivate juniors, we also participated in handing over prizes to the winners.  All stakeholders i.e. KZNGU, Juniors and their parents congratulated Southern Natal Nomads for the effort we put in ensuring that this tournament is a success.   For the 1^st time Margate Golf Academy was represented by 8 players made up of 5 boys and 3 girls and they all performed very well with one of the ladies being a winner in C Division at Southbroom.  Bones will be downloading this event photos into our website later.  The event was a success, thanks to my fellow nomads who rendered assistance.

Our weekly visit to Margate Academy is ongoing, I am still appealing for volunteers to help during the Saturday Training that takes place every Saturday morning between 8:00 and 10:30 your participation can be highly appreciated. Also a big thank you to our club for old balls and golf equipment donation made at our monthly games.
