Halcyon Cup 2023
2021 Halcyon Cup
The BDLGA is proud to announce that we won both the Committee competition and the Halcyon Cup, when Brisbane District played against the Gold Coast District on Monday.
Each District fielded a team of 50 members, plus a team of 10 Committee members. It was a great day of golf, camaraderie and competition at Gainsborough Greens, generously sponsored by Halcyon Greens, specialists in over-50 retirement living.
Sincere thanks to all concerned and congratulations to the Brisbane District players.
Thank you for wearing our colour, red, on the day. I'm sure it just got us over the line.
Meg Nunn Salver event update - Please note the Meg Nunn Salver 2023 event has been postponed.
The Meg Nunn Salver is an Inter-District Matchplay Event - a competition contested annually by the seven Districts of Queensland – Far North Queensland, North Queensland, Central Queensland/Central Highlands, Sunshine Coast Burnett & District, Downs & South West, Gold Coast District and Brisbane & District.
Each team consists of 6 players. Maximum handicap for the event is 16 and full handicaps apply. State Squad members, Q.A.S players and Junior players are not eligible for selection.
As full handicap allowance applies, the players selected are not necessarily those with the lowest handicaps in the District as venues and local conditions will influence the spread of the handicaps of the players selected.
As a guide, a player’s past history, and performances in Pennant matches has a large bearing on selection and a player’s win/loss record for the season is taken into account. The handicap of players’ opponents will also be taken into consideration in their win/loss record. Participation in BDLGA scheduled tournaments and championships is also taken into consideration.
The event was not played in 2020 or 2021.
In 2022 this event will be hosted by Downs & South West District and played at Middle Ridge Golf Club from 4th-8th September.
