Your weekly events and results

From Dave's Desk

Hello everyone,

Wet! That sums up the weekend pretty accurately. Sadly, there were no competitions on Saturday due to the weather. A reminder that the Festival Week golf days are open and the sheets are in the foyer. You can also call the office to book times for you. Lots coming up at the club, so have a look below.

Ladies’ League – Tuesday, 13th August

The re-scheduled Ladies’ League game is tomorrow (weather permitting!).

The teams playing at Westlake are:

  • Parow v Atlantic Beach
  • Durbanville v Strand
  • Westlake v Clovelly

Good luck to all our ladies.

S.F. Waterson Trophy – Sunday, 25th August

Celebrating the purchase of the course and clubhouse in 1935, this open mixed event was named after Mr S.F. Waterson who donated the cup. It was shelved in 1973 but reintroduced in 1994. Everyone is welcome to play, including 5-Day members.

Book with the office – (021) 788 2020.

Wine and Dine – 7 September (Save the Date)

Our next Wine & Dine evening is on Saturday, 7th September. Members will have the first option. Bookings are now open with Tina, and you can give her a call to book your table and pay directly on (021) 788 2020. Please note that bookings are only confirmed when full payment is received.

The cost per person is R595, which includes a six-course meal, fresh ciabatta on the table, plus 5 wines and an after-dinner coffee. The wines and food will be exceptional, and the chef and winemaker are currently pairing the correct wines to complement each dish. The wines are being supplied by Fairview wines. Don’t miss this – it is going to be a very memorable evening!

Payment of Annual Subs – Due by 31st August 2024

To those of you who have already paid your subs, thank you.

A reminder that our new financial year starts on 1 September. Please note:

  • If you want to change your category, please do so with plenty of time for Carmen to make the changes and mail them back to you. Feel free to mail her at membership@westlakegolfclub.co.za or give her a call at (021) 788 2020.
  • Payment Options:
    • Full amount paid in full by 31 August – EFT only, please.
    •  Debit Order monthly over 12 months. Please come into the office and sign a new form for the new financial year. It does not simply carry on, as the amount will change.
    • Debit Order quarterly. Every 3 months starting 1 September. As above – sign in office.
    • Pay the full amount by 31 October as per the Constitution in 3 equal instalments (31 August, 30 September, and 31 October).
    • No other payment plans will be possible, due to the amount of admin required to manage numerous individual requests.
  • Payment of subs – Please pay by EFT only. This saves the club on credit card and Clubmaster fees.
  • NB! Reference when paying subs – Kindly use your “Account number” and name. You will find this number on your pro forma invoice.

Thank you all for your kind assistance with this. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact the office so that we can assist you.

For your information, our Constitution states the following:
