Terrigal Cup and Plate 2021  The Terrigal cup was held on Sunday 7th of November, 2021 much to the delight of Breakers Mens Golf Club. Sixty-six players started shotgun start.  Leading the way off the 1 st Tee was Allan Hillary, owner of Erina Goodyear Tyre and Auto Erina and proud sponsor of the Terrigal Cup.( see attached photo of Allan surrounded by fellow members, Michael Hogan and Steven Buddeke.)  Patchy rain fell at different times but did not affect playing conditions with the course once again presented in fine condition. Terrigal Cup winner was Dean Osborne who won on a playoff hole from Glenn Bainbridge.  Terrigal Plate winner was Peter ‘Whispers” McGrath who had the best Net score on the day and seemed very pleased with his success.(see photos attached)  A function with finger food provided by the mens golf committee was catered for in side breakers and a presentation of winners was made. Congratulations to all those involved.  Paul English Breakers Mens Golf President

  Over the year s  the Breakers dress code has been challenged on a number of occasions but this takes the cake Last weekend a player was sighted on the course wearing one golf shoe and one old croc. Turns out that Don Ball was suffering Gout, and anyone that has had gout knows how painful it can be, refused to retire and give in to his playing partner and give him the pleasure of a forfeit, he somehow found an old croc and finished the round. Whats more he went on to win and took the dollar from Peter Searle who brought this story to our attention claiming that he was distracted by the croc and shouldn't of had to pay the dollar, as it put him off his game -- any excuse will do Pete
