Golf, Good Food, Great Vibes! Romel’s golf tournament set for November 30

The Lusignan Golf Club will host the Romel Golf Tournament and bar-b-que on Sunday, November 30, offering a competitive and festive day for golfers and supporters as the holiday season approaches. The event is designed to bring together players of varying skill levels for a welcoming and enjoyable experience both on and off the course.

The tournament is scheduled to tee off at 09:00h, adopting a Medal Play format over nine holes with a shotgun start. This structure promotes an engaging and cohesive pace of play, allowing all groups to begin simultaneously.

Competitors will be placed into three handicap flights (0–9, 10–18 and 19-28), ensuring a fair and balanced contest for every participant.

There will also be a separate category for beginner golfers, encouraging newcomers to enjoy the sport in a relaxed and supportive environment. Prizes will be presented to the top three Best Net in each flight, Overall Best Net, Best Gross, Most Honest Player, Nearest to the Flag on #9 Green, and Longest Drive on Hole #9.

Beyond the tournament itself, attendees can look forward to a vibrant bar-b-que on the club grounds. The social component of the event is expected to capture the warmth, camaraderie and festive cheer associated with the Christmas season.

Families, supporters and golf enthusiasts are anticipated to create an atmosphere of fellowship that extends the day’s enjoyment beyond the final putt.

Golf enthusiast Romel Bhagwandin, in whose honour the tournament is named, shared his appreciation for the event and the community that surrounds it.

“It is truly inspiring to see golfers come together in the spirit of unity and sportsmanship. Golf teaches discipline and integrity, but above all, it strengthens relationships. As the Christmas season draws near, I hope this tournament encourages a deeper sense of togetherness and reminds us of the joy that shared experiences bring. I extend my best wishes to every participant for a safe, enjoyable, and fulfilling round.”

Golfers wishing to participate are encouraged to register by contacting the Lusignan Golf Club on 220-5660. Registration closes at 17:00h on Saturday, November 29.
