Hi,
And just like that, we’ve reached the end of another brilliant 9-Hole year.
What a season it’s been. Great golf, plenty of laughs, a few head-scratching rules moments, lots of encouragement, and that special 9-Hole camaraderie that makes turning up each week such a joy. Thank you all for showing up, supporting each other, and making this group what it is.
Before we fully switch into Christmas mode, please grab your new diary and lock in these key 2026 dates.

Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas, a relaxing and happy New Year, and a summer filled with sunshine, fairways, and stress-free golf. I hope you get the chance to play at lots of beautiful courses around New Zealand over the break.
If you do, please send me photos. Course shots, group pics, holiday golf moments, all welcome. I’d love to share them in the first newsletter of the new year so we can kick 2026 off smiling.
Thank you again for such a wonderful year. Enjoy the break, stay safe, and I’ll see you all refreshed and ready in February.
