Combined Veterans Associations Event at Settlers Run on 30th March 2026

I am pleased to advise that we are running our first Combined Vets event that involves 12 teams from the four participating Associations.

The four Associations are:

o Veterans Golf Club of Victoria

o East Suburban Veterans Golfers Association

o Mornington Peninsula Veterans Golfers Association

The Event is scheduled for 30th March at Settlers Run. Melbourne Vets will be organizing and hosting the event.

As we are fast approaching March, I need to move on finalizing our 24 participants. 16 places are reserved for ordinary members with the 8 places being reserved for on-duty committee members. If all the slots are filled please put your name down on the waitlist as there are always withdrawals as we get closer to the event. If you would like to book a team, please do so directly into the event which has been loaded onto our One Golf Booking system.

The 24 members will be will be divided into 12 teams and play 4BBB against a team from one of the other Associations.

The cost of the event will be $72.00 that includes a 6 point sandwich.

The Prizes for the Event will be:
