Mornington Golf Club was at its best for this year’s Women’s Challenge Bowl, with near-perfect weather, a full field, and teams representing 19 clubs from across Victoria – the perfect recipe for a fantastic day of golf and friendship.

The day began with welcoming coffee and cakes and plenty of laughter as players caught up with old friends and made new ones before heading out for the 4BBB Stableford Aggregate event to see who would take home the Mornington Bowl.

A huge thank you to our wonderful volunteers and the Women’s Committee whose hard work and organisation ensured the day ran seamlessly. Your efforts make events like this possible and so enjoyable.
