Last weekend saw the Aorangi Men’s side compete in the South Island Inter Provincials at the Waitikiri Golf course in Chch. Saturday had us lined up against the local boys from Canterbury who were gunning for us after we defeated them 3 weeks ago in Ashburton.
After the morning rounds, the teams were locked at 2 all (wins to Tim and Daniel).
With some even battles locked in for the afternoon it was all set up for a close finish, and that’s exactly how it ended up with Jordan going down the 18th to gain the vital half point to complete a...

A solid loss to Tasman has meant the Aorangi Women were to fall into 3rd place at the 2019 South Island Interprovincials in Blenheim.
Only win today was to Wendy Parr.
Some close matches to Pauline Bell and Kathryn Baker, with both losing 1 down on the 18th.
However, even with three wins, it was going to depend on Canterbury not winning more than 5 games against bottom-placed Otago.
Final points:
Tasman 16
Canterbury 15.5
Aorangi 10
Otago 6.5
Aorangi has won the Latimer Trophy against Otago.
A great team spirit and an awesome result coming so close to an overall win.

South Island Women’s Interprovincial Report
An exciting result for the women’s team playing at the Marlborough Golf Club.
Playing Canterbury in the morning the team defeated their neighbours by 4 and a half to 3 and a half.
Wins to Kathryn Baker, Angela Gerken, Sharon Bradford and Pauline Bell and a half to Vicky Moore.
Smiles all round as this is a significant victory.
In the afternoon the team came up against Otago.
With the course being very heavy it was going to be a big ask for tiring legs.
But the team proved that they are a great team and battled to another 5 wins to...
