For those asking what is happening with Matariki;
We are running it back!

Staying with the same “Whakanuia” format that won us NZ Golf Event of the Year; we are running it on the Matariki Public Holiday Friday 10th July with a cut down field to manage the daylight hours on one of the shortest days of the year.

As the field is smaller, priority is being given to Sponsors and those who played last year in supporting the event in its first running; Kennedy is contacting reps from last years teams directly and after they have all been contacted and have had a chance to enter we will open it up.
Due to the number of late withdrawals and restricted numbers, it will be the first PAID teams at $120 per team.

Get a hold of Kennedy directly with any questions, queries, sponsorship interest or other issues

Thanks to all our club reps this 2026 season.

What a season!

Congratulations to our Patutahi ladies finishing the round robin 1st equal on the table with Wairoa Golf Club. What an effort !
Sadly there will be no shield coming home, losing the countback based on individual match results and damn it was close!
Congratulations to Wairoa on an incredible season and how fitting to have had the final at home on a beautiful day showcasing the best of a community run course and the generosity of its members.

Thank you to all our ladies for showing up in the long season that started back in February, your commitment to representing the club with pleasure and pride has been nothing but inspiring to see; as well as those women, and our men who have showed up to support; at home, throughout the rounds as well as showing investment in the women’s game. I assure you it has not gone unnoticed.
To those that played throughout the season; Kim, Charlie, Kennedy, Frances, Sheree, Denise and Shelley. Well done ladies. 1st Equal is amazing and we are so proud of you.

We will be back next year, and no doubt will be gunning for the shield.
