The ASGA QLD Golf Day 2024 proved to be 'fun in the sun' with 88 players, plus cheer squads, taking to the course at the beautiful Brookwater Golf & Country Club in Brisbane last Tuesday. Mark your cards for Melbourne on 2nd October!
Hexis' Ian Parsonson presents winning team from Tri Vision with their trophy
With an impressive 88 registered players, and quite a few more industry personnel attending as cheer squads backing the tee-offs, it was a great turnout for what is unquestionably one of the most eagerly-anticipated events on the ASGA calendar.
As usual, the format of the day was an Ambrose-style competition which prioritises fun and team participation over skill levels, making it ideal for everyone, no matter what their handicap. A range of prizes were up for grabs during the day, from ‘Nearest the Hole’ to the hotly-contested ‘Survival Ball’, keeping everyone on their toes. Following the game, prizes were presented over a delicious lunch at the course’s prestigious Club Rooms.
Tri Vision wins!
This year, Tri Vision took out the Winner’s trophy for the first time, after their team scored an outstanding 55.62 adjusted to take home the first place in a very close competition. They were followed by HVG at 56.37 adjusted, and then SEQ Signs at 57.12 adjusted. The ever-popular ASGA Members Draw went to Miles Plastics.
The HVG team were worthy runners-up
An undoubted highlight this year was the introduction of a new ‘Best Dressed’ award, inspired by some of the day’s more colourful characters. It was difficult to separate the sartorial splendour of Maurice O’Sullivan from team KRZ and Darron Ryan from Tri Vision, who ended up worthy joint winners of the inaugural prize.
