GOLFERS from across the region are ready to swing into action for a good cause at the Reflections NSW Marine Rescue Charity Golf Day at Ocean Shores Country Club on Sunday 1 February.<\/p>\n

Reflections Byron Bay park manager Belinda Russell launched the four-person Ambrose event in 2025 as part of Rescue Month \u2013 Reflections Holiday Parks’ annual fundraising initiative.<\/p>\n

“The goal is to raise much-needed funds and awareness for a chosen charity,” she said.<\/p>\n

“This year, we are proud to be supporting NSW Marine Rescue. Given our park’s proximity to the ocean, Marine Rescue was a cause we felt strongly about supporting and giving back to.<\/p>\n

“Last year saw more than 60 people attend the event and this year we are hoping to grow that to over 100.”<\/p>\n

The day will begin at 10.45am with a welcome barbecue and registration, followed by a shotgun start at 12pm, with teams allocated to their designated tee-off locations. Once play is underway, a host will circulate the course providing drinks and selling raffle tickets.<\/p>\n

At the conclusion of play, participants will gather at the clubhouse for presentations. The winning team will be announced and awarded their prize, followed by the raffle draw. Prizes include a $1,000 Reflections Holiday Parks voucher, a Weber Q barbecue, a retro bike and an esky.<\/p>\n

An Ambrose (or Scramble) in golf is a team format where all players hit their shots, the best one is chosen, and everyone plays their next shot from that spot, recording only one team score per hole.<\/p>\n

Russell said the format works well because it maximises fun, minimises frustration and keeps everyone involved.<\/p>\n

“There’s also something special about being outdoors, moving at an easy pace, laughing at the bad shots, and enjoying the good ones. The banter, the stories, the moments on a tee box or green that people still talk about long after the day is over.”<\/p>\n

Funds raised will go directly towards supporting life-saving marine search and rescue services and ensuring volunteers remain ready and well equipped.<\/p>\n
