Thank you to all who attended the Walker Wayland/BDA Franchising and Business Corporate Golf Day for 2014 as it was a great success! We would like to personally thank all our sponsors for the event; Walker Wayland, Tag Finance, Duff Recruitment, Centia, and Mark Brown for your support on the day!
Thanks to everyone’s support, we have raised a significant amount of money for the Make A Difference foundation, who work to improve the overall quality of life across various W.A. families in necessitous situation. The CEO Ron Conway also joined us on the course for the ‘nearest to pin’ competition.
The day was jam packed with fun; Everyone arrived at 11am, receiving a free event hat and stubby, and gathered around for the welcome speech. There was a sausage sizzle, and drinks, and some time for everyone to discuss team tactics!
Everyone then jumped in their carts and raced away to their holes, ready for the shot gun start at 12pm. Former footy stars Shaun McManus from the Dockers, and Glen Jakovich from the Eagles set up at the 7th and 9th holes, giving everyone an opportunity to discuss footy and get a photo with them.
Two drink carts circled the course to make sure everyone stayed hydrated during the day.. and made sure everyone had a beer in their hand! Then Damian Martin from the wildcats rocked up in a golf cart to say Hi! There were some great shots… and some not so great shots..even from our former footy stars!
As teams starting arriving back the scores were tallied up. We all enjoyed some delicious cocktail food and refreshments before the winners were announced. We then sat and listened as McManus & Jakovich discussed footy, and laughed until we cried as our auctioneer Tiny Holly shared his fantastic humor.
Congratulations to our winners: Sonny Rahim, Damien Moran, Trent Hardie and Jason Ridge, our runners-up: Biff Brody, Chris King, Bill Reid, Nick Reid, and those in third place: Joe Lazzara, Matthew Reid, Gareth Lane, Evan Hammond.
