Women's Charity Day On behalf of the Long Reef Women’s Committee,
we would like to sincerely thank you for your support of our recent Charity
Golf Day at Long Reef Golf Club.
The day was a tremendous success, raising
$24,596. This would not have been possible without the
generosity of supporters like you. Your contribution is helping NBWS continue
to provide safe accommodation and essential support services to women in crisis
across the Northern Beaches community.
We are also grateful to Long Reef Golf Club for
their wonderful hospitality and for providing such a fantastic venue for the
event.
Events like this not only raise vital funds but
also bring our community together in support of a meaningful cause. Thank you once again for your kindness and
support.
Warm regards,
Long Reef Golf Club Charity Committee 
Women's Grade 2026 On Friday 20th March the Grade team took on
top-of-the-table Killara at Oatlands. It was always going to be a tough contest
and it absolutely delivered, going right down to the wire. Emma led the charge with a strong 4/2 win,
while every other match went the distance to the 18th. Rachel held her nerve to
win 2 up, Sal went down fighting - 2 down, and Tanya was pipped 1 down on the
last after her opponent drained a monster putt from off the green to win -
leaving it all resting on the final match. Alyssa was 3 down with 4 to play, then won
three on the trot to square things up by the 18th tee. With the last hole
halved, an overall square was secured. A fantastic team effort against a strong
side. Then on Friday 27th March, Killara set the
stage for the final Grade pennant match, and no pressure, just a must-win to
stay in Div 2. Standing in our way was a full-strength Cromer side equally keen
to dodge the drop. Naturally, it was always going to be tight, and tight it
was, with four matches heading all the way to the 18th! Tanya fought hard but went down 4/3, while Sally played some cracking golf only to fall just short, 2 down. Kate delivered a great result with a steady 1 up win, and Emma held her nerve to win the last and square her match. Which meant it all came down to the final putt on the final hole. Sadly, Alyssa’s opponent rolled it in to snatch a 1 up victory, leaving us with a 3.5 - 1.5 result. Bayview were the overall winner of the Division, their first flag in Div 2 for 42 years! Impressively, just 1.5 points separated the remaining teams, showing just how tightly contested and competitive the division was right to the very end. |
For Long Reef, it’s farewell to Div 2 for now and hello Div 3 in 2027. But as we all know - what goes down must come back up! 😉⛳️ Emma Thurlow | Grade Captain
