The popular NSW Golf’s KENO Mixed Ambrose event is back again this year!

🗓 Date: Sunday 6th July
📍 Location: Bardwell Valley Golf Club

This is more than just a fun day out—it’s a qualifying round, and the daily winners will move on to the Regional Finals, with a shot at making it all the way to the State Titles, just like John McKeon and Jenny O’Hearn did last year!

What is a Mixed Ambrose?

A Mixed Ambrose is a fun and inclusive team format, perfect for all skill levels. Teams are made up of two or four players, with a mix of men and women. Here’s how it works:

Each player tees off, and the best shot is selected.

Everyone plays their next shot from that chosen spot.

The team’s score is adjusted using a percentage of the combined handicaps.

Teams are usually limited to a max handicap of 24 for men and 36 for women.

Net scoring means everyone has a fair shot at the win!

This relaxed, social format makes it a favourite among club players—and it’s your chance to qualify for something bigger.
