Dear Nomads,
Welcoming back the Nationals team from a successful and most enjoyable tournament

going to be a tough ask to win the Bert Hunt Trophy. A massive congratulations to
Frankie Brown and the Southern Cape team for winning the tournament, we will see

Congratulations to the National co-ordinator Robbie Frank and his committee on putting
together a successful tournament during very trying times, it was an amazing advert for
Nomads golf in general and thoroughly enjoyable for the 300+ Nomads who participated
in the event. It truly is a magical experience.
