Above: Dad's Army is a British television sitcom about the United Kingdom's Home Guard during the Second World War. It was originally broadcast from 1968 to 1977.

A NEW CHAPTER FOR A LONG-RUNNING FRIDAY TRADITION

Those familiar with the long-standing “Dad’s Army” lunches will know they have always been filled with good humour and warm company. As this gathering evolves into the Seniors Friday Lunch, the spirit remains the same — friendly conversation, shared stories and plenty of laughs, just without the old TV-inspired label.

Senior members are invited to continue the tradition every Friday from 12.30 pm. To assist with catering, please book via the Event Registration Bookings area on the website or at the front desk.

DINING 

A gentle reminder for those dining in the Clubhouse: your reservation time is the time you are expected to be seated for dinner. If you would like to enjoy a drink in the Members Lounge beforehand — a lovely way to begin the evening — please plan to arrive a little earlier and encourage your guests to do the same.

Being seated at the reserved time helps the hospitality team maintain a smooth flow of service and ensures the best possible dining experience for everyone.

Please book ahead to avoid disappointment.

Honour board events in all three 'codes' — billiards, snooker and pin pool — are now well underway in their respective knockout formats, and players are encouraged to complete their matches by the required dates to keep each draw progressing smoothly.

To help everyone enjoy the room, please remember to reserve your table through the booking system and cancel if your plans change. Members are also asked to wash their hands before play to protect the cloth and equipment.

FAMILY GOLF:

IAN WALL father & son JOINED BY REINSTATED parent & child TROPHY

Played on Sunday 16 November   

This family golf day was met with enthusiasm, with the field reaching capacity well before the event. Combining the long-running Ian Wall Father & Son Trophy with the reinstated Parent & Child Trophy proved to be a winning formula, creating a wonderful day of family golf and friendly competition.

A MATCH WITH SPECIAL SIGNIFICANCE

Seventy-nine years after the trophy was first presented, congratulations are extended to Kane Wallace and Chris Nunn, winners of the 2025 Sprague Cup, defeating Peter Petricola and Andrew Rogers 5 & 4.

For Peter and Andrew, the day carried a meaning far deeper than the final score.

It was during a Sprague Cup match in July 2024 when former Club Captain Andrew Rogers collapsed on the 14th hole with a sudden cardiac arrest.
