Congratulations to the following players who were selected for the upcoming Heptangular event.

Active Gauteng North Junior lady golfers Carrie Park, Nicole Hannah and Danielle du Toit have been selected for the GNGU IPT team competing in Port Elizabeth from 24 – 27 September in the most prestigious women’s team competition, the 53rd Pick & Pay SA Womens IPT.

Carrie was selected for the A-team, the defending champions, while Nicole and Danielle are in the B-team which competes this year for the first time in the provincial A Division. While the A-team is favorites to win for the seventh year in a row the performance of the B-team caught the headlines.

On Tuesday the tournament started with a qualification tournament to determine the top and second flight of the A and B dvisions.  Only the top flight in the A division can win the tournament. Excellent play by Danielle in the morning foursomes and Nicole in the afternoon singles contributed to the B-team qualifying for the top flight and competing for top honours together with the A-team, Western Province A and Gauteng A.

We are proud of our girls who consistently support our local tournaments and quadrangulars despite  the scheduling demands to play in both national womens / girls golf and our local junior tournaments.

A very well done to our top six U13 players who were selected on order of merit to represent their province at this years U13 event at the Fish River Sun. It took long hours from players as well as parents to achieve top 6 and a congratulations to you all! The event will take place in the October school holidays and as always live scoring will be available via the SAGA website.
