Ballina Wrap Up!<\/p>\n

What a difference a few months makes!
\nPostponed from March, the Ballina Junior event finally teed off this past weekend\u2014definitely worth the wait. The course has come alive after months of growth and attention, providing the perfect stage for some fantastic junior golf.<\/p>\n

We had a brilliant turnout with over 60 entries, showing just how strong junior golf is in the region right now. It was great to see so many familiar faces\u2014and some new ones too\u2014all enjoying the game and testing their skills.<\/p>\n

Results \u2013 18 Hole Event<\/p>\n

Noah Adey was the standout on the day, firing a superb level-par round to take out the overall title.<\/p>\n

Hot on his heels was Lachlan Symons, just three shots back, followed closely by Stella Payne, who finished four behind Noah. Stella claimed the Nett Winner title.<\/p>\n

9 Hole Competition<\/p>\n

Jett Robinson continued his impressive run of form, edging out Beau and Harry in a close contest. With Harry winning the Nett event. Jett and Beau are climbing the Order of Merit points with their steady game and strong finishes.<\/p>\n

5 Hole Competition<\/p>\n

We had a fantastic turnout of 12 young stars in the 5-hole event\u2014what a fun group! There were smiles all round, some great shots, and lots of high-fives. It’s always awesome to see the next generation enjoying the game and getting involved.<\/p>\n

Thanks to everyone who played, pushed buggies, drove kids around, helped out, or simply came along to support. Events like these don\u2019t happen without a great community behind them!<\/p>\n

Next stop: Grafton on Saturday, followed by Yamba on Sunday for a back-to-back junior golf weekend contesting for the prestigious 36 hole annual NRDGA Junior Championships. We\u2019ll see you there!<\/p>\n
