The 24th International Airline Cup – Malaysia

It is now only 44 days until the welcome dinner for the 74 folk attending this event. The hotel, golf courses, Tourism Malaysia and WAGA staff are looking forward to entertaining this international group of players and non-golfers. The hotel has provided a generous pre and post rate for WAGA attendees! Contact armlass@optusnet.com.au for details.

The Costa del Sol tournament in June has so far attracted 22 golfers and 7 non-golfers. Players from Dubai, USA and Australia will participate. There are still spots available should you wish to join us at Malaga, a wonderful seaside resort on the eastern shores of Spain.

The Sunshine Coast in Queensland has attracted 30 entries to-date and there is plenty of space for new entrants. The great courses, weather and low costs make this an ideal winter destination. The Crowne Plaza Pelican Waters is our host for the event and being located on the Greg Norman designed Club Pelican course, is an ideal place to have a very inexpensive winter holiday.

Palm Springs, California. Bookings are very steady and indications are that this event will indeed fill. Easy for our American friends who can drive there but in addition, Qantas have just introduced record low airfares from Australia to west coast USA, a staggering $971AUD return. This should assist any Aussies pondering whether to attend the Palm Springs event. It is also an easy way to get to Spain via New York.

Queenstown , New Zealand in November. Bookings are steady with quite a few folk just wondering world events will take us during the year.

At WAGA, we have always relied on the quality and low cost of our events to self-promote and then we have you, the readers who bring friends and promote events. Thank you! Keep doing that and we hope to see you at an event in 2009.

Happy golfing

Brian Lassen, WAGA.
