The Nomination Period MUST close shortly, so please get your nomination in ASAP. 

The selection process is already underway so we need YOUR NOMINATION NOW. The Committee’s ability to provide uniforms and accommodation options on the Gold Coast are tied to tight timeframes because this years’ 45-75s Championships begin on 27 June; much earlier than previous years.                        

Over 45, 50, 55, 60, 65, 70 and 75s will be held from June 27th to 11th July.

Over 35s and 40s will be played between 3rd and 11th October.
