2019 Nationals - Motueka Golf Course - Tasman
April 8th - 11th
Hello to all Lefties
It is with pride and pleasure that we can tell you that the next NALG National Championships will be held on the Motueka Golf Course (Home of the best golf club in NZ 2018 as presented in Queenstown) and it will be have been the home of Lefties golf in the Tasman district for 40 years in 2019.
Please come and help us celebrate this milestone!
The tournament will start on the 8th of April 2019 through until the 11th of April.
The field will be restricted to 144 players so we can get everybody off the number 1 tee, and keep it to flights of 16 players in 9 flights.
The course is an 18 hole par 72 tree lined easy walking basically flat track, positioning of the ball off the tee is important for your playing of your second shot which is as it is on most courses.
We have looked at the costs and think that our budget will be similar to Taupo’s with some fine tuning and some more very helpful sponsors we may be able to reduce the entry fee, time will tell.
There is plenty of motel /hotel accommodation available in the area 68 in Motueka, 26 in Kaiteriteri, 20 minutes away, and of course over 200 in the Richmond /Nelson area 50 minutes away.
As well as all that there is an NZ Motor home park in Wharf Rd Motueka for those that need that facility.
Nelson has the one of the highest number of flights per day in NZ into our airport, and of course road access is not a problem.
The district is well known for its scenic beauty, and there is plenty for your partners to do and we will arranging trips to cover this, along with a day’s golf on another course yet to be arranged.
The Motueka Golf Club is really keen to make this Tournament a success and even has a squad of volunteers lined up to help already. The course has a history of having held a regional lefties tournament there every year since 1979 with those years of experience of running a regional tournament among our group and with the involvement in 4 nationals I am confident we can run a very successful event.
One other benefit for the players who like the taste of wine, the Tasman region is right up there with the best.
Kind Regards
Kerry Smith Tournament Convenor
