2017 Gold Coast National Veteran Golf Championships: Sign Up Now

Gold Coast vets tournament director Ron Armstrong is promising the “best week of golf ever” for veteran golfers

THE lure of playing on three top resort golf courses set amid one of Australia’s favourite holiday destinations – along with some very innovative tournament additions – has seen places filling fast for the 2017 AVGU National Championship on the Gold Coast.

As of mid-January 2017 more than 400 entries had been received for the October event that will have a strict cut-off of 540 competitors.

Entries are due to officially close on May 31 but the books may be full well short of that.

Tournament director Ron Armstrong and his organising team continue to fine tune and improve their offering and the 2017 Australian Veteran Golfers Union (AVGU) National Championship may well be the best ever edition of the annual event.

The championship, which rotates around the states and territories annually, is open to male golfers 55 an over and their partners.
