Resignation of Wayne Patston

As some of you would be aware, and for those who are not aware, our Club Manager, Wayne Patston, tendered his resignation from Cooroy Golf Club on Friday 16th February.

Wayne has held the position of Club Manager at Cooroy for 20 years, commencing his employment on 16th February 2004.  Cooroy Golf Club was a 9-hole Golf Course in 2004 when Wayne started his association with the Club and has grown to be the great club that it is today with over 400 members, playing on an 18-hole course.  Wayne has witnessed many changes during the 20 years and his dedication to the club and our members has come from his heart and has been a constant over this time.  New members have been welcomed with his infectious smile and banter and his ability to remember every member’s name, no matter how new to the club.

The growth of Cooroy Golf Club has in some ways been a credit to Wayne’s ability to attract new members, sponsorship and social players, many of those returning year after year because of his friendly and accommodating nature.

Wayne will officially finish his employment on Friday 15th March, however, due to approved holidays, his last actual working day will be Wednesday 21st February.

We wish Wayne all the best in his new employment ventures and future endeavours and would like to thank him for the enormous contribution that he has made to Cooroy Golf Club and the lives of our members during the past 20 years.  Thank you Wayne and we hope to see you playing golf on our course in the future.

  • Best value for money golf course on the Sunshine Coast. A really fun course layout, forces you to use multiple clubs off tees And have good course management. The grains are in great condition and are really receptive

  • Fantastic golf course! Really well setup with signage, sand buckets, and ball cleaners on most tees. This course is designed for playing 1-18 consecutively rather than stopping midway. A ‘grip it and rip it’ mindset will lead to disappointment as there are many hidden hazards (yes I speak from experience!). Some of the fairways are deceptively narrow or have huge swathes of flanking rough hard to see from a distance. Lots of variety! Long par 5s to short par 3s and everything in between. Take care when walking between tees as its easy for first timers to get disoriented. At just $40 I felt it was great value and would definitely go back.

  • Beautiful fairways and greens, quite a walk but worth every step. We played in the afternoon and was very pleased with the price and quality of the course.

  • Lovely course. Challenging enough to make it fun, but not too difficult for high handicappers

    Jonty

  • Great place to play golf. Course is a good challenge for all HC’s. Very picturesque,but if you walk it the last couple of holes uphill might get you. Very limited parking. Worth a look.

  • I’ve played at this golf course several times. The par 4 course is a bit short but well-maintained, and the lady at the pro shop were very friendly.
