We had 13 juniors join us for the Schools Out golf day on June 29, 2022.  Weather forecasted 100% chance of rain, but the rain stayed away and the kids had a beautiful day to golf. 

The juniors started off the day with games and exercises on the putting green then headed onto Rundles 3 par course for a 4 person Texas scramble event. 

All juniors each received a welcome gift and the following team had the lowest score at 59: Harrison Wells, Connor Verhage & Hudson Bossel each received $25 Golf Town Gift cards.

Closest to the pin on holes 9 and 18 winners are: Harrison Wells & Casey Fedynak who received $10 Booster Juice gift cards each.

Thanks juniors for a great day, see you at the next event!

On June 11th 2022, RVJG celebrated GIRLS IN GOLF at Rundle Park Golf Course. Our aim was to create a fun, relaxed golf event with music, movement (and donuts!) whilst creating a space for the girls to build connections with other girls who golf or who would like to try golf. 

Everyone had GREAT fun on the putting green playing putting games like ‘humpty dumpty’, ’leapfrog’ and others. It was so exciting to see all the girls on the green with big smiles on their faces.  A big shout out goes to the girls who did all of this AND played a round of golf too! Phew!!  

We’d like to extend a huge thanks to all the youth and adult volunteers who came along to support girls in golf today - we couldn’t have done this without you.  See you next time!

On Saturday May 21st we had a first event of the season: The Spring Thaw Texas Scramble.  It has a perfect day for our juniors and their parents to get together and enjoy a perfect morning of golf. Weather was beautiful and we had 28 golfers golf Rundle's  par 3 course.  The event results were as follows: 

1st place went to the person with the most par's:  Logan Baich received a $25 Golf Town Gift card

2nd place went to the person with the most 6's:  Hunter Nault  received a $25 Golf Town Gift card
