      • Wellington has secured the rights to host the 2011 Tae Kwon Do (or Taekwondo, Taekwan-Do, or other variations, depending on where you look) World Champs. New Zealand finished 3rd at the 2007 World Champs (note, link is to a PDF of the medals table), and, with the sport thriving in NZ, the home team is expected to do well with the next event on home turf.

    • Recent Activities at the Club
      • On Wednesday 8th October, a group of volunteers planted the stream bank infront of the Clubhouse. This should help maintain the stream bank and shade the stream to help reduce weed growth. Thanks to the many supporters of the Club for their donations to the Conservation Committee that enabled this project to happen. Native plants have also been planted along the left hand side of the first fairway and on the hill adjacent to the 12th green. Further plantings are planned on the 12th hill when further donations are received. Also: Mike Tribe and Anthony Kelly have painted the exterior of the Women’s Matchroom and the Cart Shed to match the colours of the rest of the Clubhouse. John Plimmer and a team have completed the task of tidying up the entrance foyer with Mike and Anthony giving the area a repaint.
