Hole in One on the 11th

Congratulations goes to Judy Ince for her Hole in One on Saturday, 27 April.


Judy describes it for us: "What a thrill to have a hole in one. I have come close a couple of times but nothing compares to the feeling of it actually happening. Thank you to Racheal, Shane and Con who shared in my excitement on the day. The 11th can be a 50/50 for me, like most I have put plenty of balls in the water. I knew when I hit it, it was good, and felt relief that at least it would be up near the green. To have it roll in the hole was a whole new level. Thanks for the kind messages I have received from all."

Box Hill Golf Club Wine 

By popular demand, our special release Box Hill wine is now available so you can re-stock your cellar with top-quality wine at half the retail price. 

Sale of the wine helps raise funds for the Box Hill Pro-Am, which has done so much to improve our course with new pathways and re-building of a number of tees.

There are two varieties this year - the popular Luna Shiraz 2022 vintage from Chalk Hill winery in McLaren Vale, plus a refreshing Pinot Grigio from the award-winning De Bortoli winery. 

Both wines are excellent value at just $140 per dozen, which is approximately half what you will pay from major retailers.




Guest Access - reminder

Based on current course utilisation, the following guest guidelines have been adopted.

- A guest may play a maximum of 6 times per year. For clarification, a guest cannot play with a member 4 times per year, another member 3 times etc, as this would exceed the maximum 6 times per year.

- During social tee times (non-competition times), a Member may bring up to 3 guests. These bookings may be made when the timesheet is released, 8 days in advance.

A Member may bring one guest during competition times on the following basis:

- A booking can only be made 72 hours from day of play to ensure all eligible Members have had the chance to make a booking.

- The guest must have a valid golf link number.

- The guest may play in the competition of the day, however, is not eligible for major events.

- The appropriate Members guest green fee and any applicable competition fee must be paid before hitting off.

- It is the Members responsibility to ensure that the guest is dressed appropriately for the golf course.
