In the first week of June, Narrabri Golf Club played host to the annual N&NWDLGA tournament where clubs in this district were represented.
The Gunnedah team not only won individual events but as a team won the Bruce Beveridge Bowl with their aggregate score. Runner-up was Tamworth.
These two teams then challenged for the Moree Salver and Thacker Salver at the Quirindi Golf Club, and whose members were then included in the challenge.
Despite excellent golf, Gunnedah was not on the winner’s list this time last week.
