Club Event winners have until 3 September 2010 to nominate the Regional Final they will be contesting. This can be done by phone 07 5562 5094 (Aust) or 0061 7 5562 5094 (NZ) or email to bestball@golferpacific.com.au
All details for regional finals will be sent directly to winners. Further details can be viewed on www.golferpacific.com.au.
And see The August Golfer Pacific issue for all regional and state events.
What if you have won your club event, but are unable to attend because of travelling time and cost?
Given the enormous geographic spread of clubs involved in hosting the Golfer Pacific Best Ball Challenge, the task of assigning Regional Final venues has been a difficult one. We have endeavoured to provide reasonable access to a Regional Final for the majority of club event winners. We acknowledge that even if you qualified through your club event, it may not be practicable for you to participate at one of the scheduled Regional Finals.
With this in mind we are offering the following options to Club Event winners who do not have a Regional Final scheduled within 150km of the club where they qualified.
1. Receive 1 dozen TaylorMade Penta TP valued at $75 per player OR
2. Gain automatic entry to the National Final to be hosted on the Gold Coast from 25 to 31 October 2010 at 50% of the event cost. If you elect this option you will be required to pay $850 per player (normal cost $1700 per person). See below for the National Final itinerary and inclusions. This option is only available if both team members are in agreement. In saying this, under the Golfer Pacific Best Ball Challenge rules, you are permitted to substitute one player. Payment is required by 3 October 2010.
