PRESIDENT v CAPTAIN TROPHY

Date: 1967                                            

History: Named in honour of Reg Copp and George Kidd.

Reg Copp was one of the many campers who came to Palm Beach every year from the inner western suburbs. A tireless work for the club, he served as president from 1956 to 1958 and was made a life member in 1962.

George Kidd, another camper from the inner western suburbs, served as president in 1959 and 1960 and was also made a life member in 1962. It was typical of George that he could be found peeling potatoes at three in the morning preparing for All Services Day which was a big feature in the club calendar in those days. He died in 1968.

Rules: This competition involves the field playing in support of either the President or Captain. Prior to the start of the competition, players will be assigned to either the President’s Team or the Captain’s Team, by the Pro Shop and marked on the card. This is an individual stableford competition. The total individual stableford points of each player on the President and Captain’s Team are calculated.  The team with the highest points is the winner. There can be a draw.
