Murray Galland (1969-73) from Cableways and his team also received the Otago Boys’ High School Foundation golf trophy which was kindly donated by the tournament’s winner in 2006 and 2007 – Kiwi Mortgage Market Ltd.
All 18 holes were sponsored and comments made around the clubhouse confirmed the tournament as one of the most enjoyable events to play in each year.
The Foundation is genuinely appreciative of the support it received from its naming rights, hole and prize sponsors, those who entered teams and who played as individuals, and from the St Clair Golf Club management team and pro shop.
