Committee Update November 2024

This message summarises the resolutions and updates discussed at the October Committee meeting. Links to documents and online resources are in bold.

1. Green Improvement Strategy: The Committee has been working with Troon, our Course Advisory Panel and the management team to develop a green improvement strategy. This was identified as a priority earlier in the year at the time we overseeded our greens. In January 2025, we will start a trial of a new grass, TifEagle, on the greens on Holes 19, 20 and 21. This grass is used throughout South-East Queensland. The trial will assess cost, timings and process and this information will be used to discuss a wider solution for our greens moving forward.

2. Annual General Meeting: The 128th Annual General Meeting of The Brisbane Golf Club which will be held on Wednesday, 11 December 2024 at 6pm in The Tennyson Room. Motion for consideration: Modernising the Club Rules. Special discussion: The current condition of and future direction for the Club’s greens.
