Junior Golfers Tee Off the Season in Style at Coraki Golf Club!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Coraki, NSW \u2013 February 22, 2026 \u2013 The Northern Rivers Junior Tour<\/strong>\u00a0launched with a bang at the welcoming Coraki Golf Club, and despite a few sneaky no-shows trying to rain on the parade, the vibes were sky-high and the scores were even higher!<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
A cracking field of over 50 young guns<\/strong>\u00a0turned up ready to swing, chip, and putt their way to glory. Sure, a handful of last-minute bailers left some gaps in the tee sheet (come on, folks\u2014send a quick text! Golf’s all about etiquette, respect, and not leaving your playing partners hanging like a bad lag putt. Plus, heaps of awesome volunteers pour their time into making these days epic\u2014don’t let a few bad manners spoil the fun!).<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
But enough of the etiquette lecture\u2014let’s talk winners!<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
In the main event, Jack Davy<\/strong> is clearly on fire and refusing to cool down. The Ballina GC star carded a solid **1-over par** to claim the top spot and keep his hot streak rolling. Fresh off last week’s eye-popping 67<\/strong> – is that 6 7 🤷‍♂️ (that’s 5-under gross<\/strong>, people\u2014read it and weep!), Jack’s proving he’s the one to beat early in the season.<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
The girls weren’t about to let the boys have all the spotlight. Stella Payne<\/strong> stepped up big time with a classy 3-over par<\/strong> round, flying the flag high and showing why she’s a force on the Northern Rivers junior scene.<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
And talk about a handicap heater\u2014Savanna Abel<\/strong>‘s handicap is dropping faster than my confidence after a 3 putt! Another commanding win for Savanna in the Nett division\u2014she’s making consistency look easy and racking up the silverware like it’s going out of style. Keep it up, Savanna!<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
Over in the 9-hole division<\/strong>, Cooper<\/strong> was the undisputed boss of the day. He dominated both the Gross<\/strong> and Nett<\/strong> leaderboards, kicking off his Order of Merit campaign with serious style points. Watch this space\u2014this kid’s got game! And well done to Kaan for winning the 9 hole Nett prize!<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
The 5-hole crew<\/strong> brought the fun in numbers too, with a fantastic turnout of 10<\/strong>\u00a0little rippers tearing around the course, laughing, learning, and loving every minute. Pure junior golf joy!<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
Big shoutout to Coraki Golf Club<\/strong> for hosting a cracker of a kick-off event\u2014the course was in mint condition, the atmosphere electric, and the next generation of Aussie golfers is looking seriously promising.<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
Roll on the rest of the tour\u2014 these kids are just getting warmed up! 🏌️‍♂️🏌️‍♀️⛳<\/div>\n
