Management Committee Appointment
Your Management Committee has appointed Andrew Atkinson, an U40 member, to join the committee.
Andrew has returned to Hawke's Bay, where he grew up, with his wife Hannah and two young boys, after 19 years living in Auckland, Dunedin and New York City.  Andrew loves the game of golf and is very enthusiastic about contributing to the management of the Hastings Golf Club with the goal of preserving its fantastic course and culture.  Off the course Andrew has joined Jarden in Havelock North as a Wealth Adviser and previously held roles in Institutional Banking.

Andrew will bring a younger generation's perspective to our Management Committee, particularly around the changing and challenging model of how younger people participate within sporting clubs, not just golf.  Also, his broad training/experience in the legal and financial fields in NZ and overseas will broaden the perspective around the committee table.
 
This is a two year appointment with the objective of introducing a broader range of skill sets to our committee and introducing the appointee to the short and long term issues facing our club.
 
I wish Andrew, Hannah and family all the best in enjoying what Hawke's Bay has to offer whilst contributing to the long term success of HGC.
 
NZ Stroke Play Tournament
Thank you to all the volunteers helping for this tournament.  The comment was made to me "this is not the type of golf we are used to, they hit it hard and do plenty of recovery shot", i.e. interesting entertainment for whose who can spare the time.
