Biography of Named Events<\/strong><\/p>\n

Bill Cunningham<\/strong><\/p>\n

Bill Cunningham was a stalwart of the club and a great contributor over many years. He was a member from the 50s and was President in the mid-80s. He was granted Life Membership for his contribution to the Club. During his tenure the club experienced several difficult years and he personally ensured the survival of the club during this period.<\/p>\n

B. L. (Brian) Miller<\/strong><\/p>\n

Brian was one of our earliest members at the current site and was President during the late 50s & early 60s. He was a stalwart of the club and oversaw many significant improvements to the course, including the commencement of conversion to Bent greens. The Sub Junior program was also commenced during his Presidency. He was granted Life Membership of the club, the first since GDT Seccombe, who was involved in the moving f the club to the present site.<\/p>\n

Graham Bartlett<\/strong><\/p>\n

Passed away in 2003 and the Graham Bartlett memorial trophy was instigated. It was donated by his son Steve.<\/p>\n

Leyland Cross & Peter Riddett<\/strong><\/p>\n

This was a joint trophy initiated in the 70s. The partnership ceased in the early 80s and Leyland continued to support the award individually. Leyland is still an active member of the club and can be seen most Friday mornings helping with picking up debris from the course so it is ready for us to play on Saturdays. Leyland won the Col Irvine award as Club Member of the Year last year, a fully deserved award and his contribution to the club over many years is greatly appreciated.<\/p>\n

Pat Ryan<\/strong><\/p>\n

Joined the club in the late 60s and first donated the trophy in 1970. The winner of the trophy had to be in attendance at the presentations to receive the award. Pat has been a great supporter of the club over many years and also has helped with the Junior Program.<\/p>\n

Brahman Bull<\/strong>               Phil Doyle            Russell Greenwood<\/p>\n

Phil Doyle was a prominent local beef producer who bred his own Brahman cattle, hence the name of the trophy. He instigated the event and sponsored it for many years. To ensure the tradition of the history continues Russell Greenwood of Russell\u2019s Meats has taken over the sponsorship to retain the link to the meat industry.<\/p>\n\n\t\t
