Close to 100 attendees participated in ASGA’s annual Queensland Golf Day at the Brookwater Golf & Country Club in Brisbane.
With 88 registered players, and quite a few more industry personnel attending to cheer from the tee offs, it was a strong turnout for one of the most eagerly-anticipated events on the ASGA calendar.
Damian Nielsen, ASGA member and events manager and Queensland state president, said it was a fantastic day of fun and networking.
“Brookwater is a fantastic venue and it was an absolute pleasure to see the connection and camaraderie made within, and between, the teams who took part today, so I’d like to send a huge thank you to everyone who took part,” he said.
The format of the day was an Ambrose-style competition which prioritises fun and team participation over skill levels, .
A range of prizes were also up for grabs, from ‘Nearest the Hole’ to the hotly-contested ‘Survival Ball’, keeping everyone on their toes. Following the game, prizes were presented over lunch at the course’s prestigious Club Rooms.
This year, Tri Vision took out the winner’s trophy for the first time, after their team scored an outstanding 55.62 adjusted to take home the first place in a very close competition. They were followed by HVG at 56.37 adjusted, and then SEQ Signs at 57.12 adjusted. The ever-popular ASGA members draw went to Miles Plastics.
A highlight this year was the introduction of a new ‘Best Dressed’ award, with Maurice O’Sullivan from team KRZ and Darron Ryan from Tri Vision, announced as joint winners of the inaugural prize.
Sponsors of the event included: Principal Sponsor HEXIS; ORAFOL, who sponsored lunch drinks and prizes; Graphic Art Mart for the Survivor Ball and Franco Brotolin Tropy (NTP); Visual Connections who sponsored drinks and the on-course drinks cart, and to Novelty and Individual Hole sponsors ASMI, Bounce LED / Lettertech, Bentleigh Sign Group. CV Media and Signage, HVG, Mulford, Rowmark, SA LED, Shann, Signarama, SMIB Insurance and Spicers.
“We are looking forward to our next Golf Day in Melbourne on 2 October, and are already well underway with planning for similar events on our 2025 events calendar,” Nielsen said.
