June 2024 Handiskins Results
Highlights of the June 2024 Comps
Its one thing to win a club Handiskins Championship, but Ian Bloomfield showed he is made for the pressure of Handiskins, going back to back in 2024 - successfully defending his 2023 title at Burleigh Golf Club.
But just when you though that was impressive, the exact same scenario unfolded at Pacific Dunes - with Lee Gilmour achieving the exact same feat on the same day. Mark the 22nd June 2024 in the diary as the Handiskins Defender Day. Well done gents!
For the second consecutive month there was a cruel countback to determine a winner - this month it was Hayden Powell at Brisbane River Golf Club that stormed home to claim the last 4 skins of the day to edge the unlucky Jarred Warneminde.

Non-qualifiers can still join the fun of the National Championships
For those who weren't lucky enough to qualify for the National Championships but want to join these finalists and other club-mates on the Gold Coast each year, take a look at the amazing packages that we have available for the Peter Lehmann Wines Golf Challenge - A social Stableford championship for those wishing to join the fun of Handiskins National Championship Week. Player Packages and non-playing partner packages are now open. Find out More about the Peter Lehmann Wines Golf Challenge here.
Don't forget the Yamaha Chipping Competition!
Don't forget that three players from each participating club also have the chance to clean up at the Handiskins National Championships Week. After taking out the the nearest the pin challenge in the first, third and fifth rounds of qualifying, don't be surprised if you see these qualifiers spending an extended amount of time around the club chipping greens in the coming months. All three players who took out the nearest the pin have scored an invitation to contest the Yamaha Chipping competition at the 2025 Handiskins Championship Week. The winner will return to their club as the owner of a brand new Yamaha Golf Cart - just like our lucky 2024 winner Tom O'Rourke from Kiama Golf Club (watch below).
See you again in 2025
