The annual Wembley College Golf Day was held in perfect weather albeit a bit windy on Saturday 27 August 2022 at Greytown Country Club. The sun was out unlike last year when the day had to be postponed due to snow.
80 players took to the fairways (for some) which is the biggest field ever. Thank you must go to every player for supporting the day and especially to the companies that sponsored players. Many prizes were also donated by the generous businesses around town and further afield. A very big thank you for the wonderful prizes. A new development this year was having the sponsors names on the new digital notice board outside the club. Thank you to Marianne Brown for uploading the names.
A big thank you to Sarina Robertson and her team from the Wembley PA for all their hard work in making the day a success.
A very big thank you to Bobby Pearson and his team for preparing the course and serving all the golfers during the day.

As the country battles to cope with level 6 load shedding over most meal times we’d like to remind everyone that the club’s Pizza Oven runs during load shedding and will be running at maximum capacity over this period to help out where we can.

The Golf Captain’s Society of KZN was founded on the 24th of October 1960 in the spirit of “Promoting good fellowship” and the enjoyment of good golf, food and drink. Each year current and past men’s captains of Kwa-Zulu Natal Golf Clubs and provincial teams are invited to join the club and to participate in the annual Gerry Shuttleworth Memorial Trophy. Although historically a club for men’s captains only, from 2022 onward all KZN ladies captains, past and present, are eligible for membership as well.
The club observed its 60th year anniversary in 2020 but owing to various COVID restrictions in 2020 and 2021 has only been able to celebrate the event this year. The Greytown Country Club is happy to report that our current and past GCC men’s captains, Patrick O’Sullivan and Tubby Larkan participated in the celebration hosted at Kloof Country Club on Monday the 27th of June 2022. Their fourball comprised of St. Cathryn’s Fanie van Wyk and Newcastle’s captain, Dick Lemmer. We’re even happier to announce that our captain’s did us proud and won the tournament with a combined total of 92 points.
