PAUL JUBB State President President’s Report

On the 7th March, the annual THA President’s Cup took place at Barnbougle Dunes at Bridport. We had 23 teams enter the day (and night) event and it was once again a huge success with the weather on the day absolutely fantastic. I would like to start by thanking our sponsors for the event: - • Treasury Wine Estates (TWE) • Cascade (CUB) • LION • Coca-Cola Amatil (CCA) • UBET • Hostplus Thanks also to Treasury Wine Estates, Federal Group, RACT Destinations, LION, UBET and CCA for their kind donation of prizes. I must also make a special thanks to UBET who kindly sponsored the ‘hole in one’ competition that raised just under $2,000 for the THA Foundation - [THAT]. The ‘hole in one’ competition was a great addition to a wonderful day and we hope to grow it in future years. A big thanks must go to Darren Alexander and the team from “what’s On in App” who used their drone to take amazing photos and video of teams on the course and produced a short video of the day. If you haven’t already seen it, I encourage you to go to the ‘What’s on In App’ Facebook page and go to 9th March and watch the video. Thanks to the whole team at Barnbougle Dunes for their wonderful support of our annual event, we look forward to seeing you all again next year. Thanks to all the teams and individuals who take part in the day. It is arguably the best golf day in Tasmania and that is in part to the great teams of people who get involved each year and make the event what it is. Last but not least, thanks to our GM Steve Old for organising the event year on year. He does an amazing amount of work to make the day and night such a highlight and I thank him sincerely for making the 2017 event, the best ever. For the record, for the first ever time, my team was able to win the President’s Cup Trophy by a small margin over the Asahi team led by Mark Bell. Third this year was the ever consistent Westpac team led by Darren Backhouse. Thanks again to all teams who participated in the day. Keep an eye out for details on the 2018 event and I look forward to seeing you next year at Lost Farm.
