IT’S ALWAYS NICE TO WELCOME VISITORS
THE WEST INDIES COME TO HARTFIELD!
This week we were fortunate enough to have visitors from the West Indies come and try our track!
Visiting elite sportsmen always add an exciting buzz to any Golf Course, So it was with great pleasure that a few of the West Indies Cricket Team decided to give Hartfield a run for its money.
There’s often a palpable sense of anticipation amongst members when top sportsmen show up which can elevate the atmosphere. Thankfully our laid back nature here at Hartfield allowed the players to relax and enjoy the game we all love (and Hate) in a relaxed environment.
For our club, hosting elite sportsmen can add publicity and prestige to our little bit of turf , but moreover it’s great that Hartfield is recognised as a “Golfers’ Course”
I had the pleasure of having a hit with Jason Holder and Darren Sammy on Wednesday, who both held their own commendably, despite Hartfield showing them around the more non-manicured parts at times!
Both avid golfers and single figures to boot, they relished the opportunity to play on our beautiful course, giving them a chance to unwind and relax on the final day of their tour Down Under.
Message to Jason and Darren…
On Behalf of Hartfield CC, we would like to extend our sincerest gratitude for your visit this week.
Your presence added vibrancy to the course and helped showcase our welcoming atmosphere.
We appreciated your support, and your enthusiasm for the game was infectious. We hope that your experience was an enjoyable and memorable one.
We look forward to welcoming you back to Hartfield in the future. Until then may your drives be long and your putts be true.
Kind Regards,
Paul.

Important Notice to Members
Attention members,
As we’re growing substantially as a club, there’s a few housekeeping items that we need to remind ourselves about in order to ensure people aren’t missing out on a game and the competitions can be run smoothly.
NOT ABLE TO MAKE TEE TIME
If you’re unable to make your tee time on the day, it’s imperative that you call the Pro Shop on 9453 9194 and advise the staff accordingly. Failure to do so can result in other members potentially missing out on a game.
ARRIVING ON TIME FOR YOUR ROUND
When playing competitions at Hartfield CC, you’re expected to arrive well in advance for your tee time. You should be ready at your relevant starting tee box at least 10 mins prior to the specified time. This is to ensure our competition fields can commence as smoothly as possible, preventing any unnecessary delays.
We sincerely appreciate your co-operation regarding these matters, allowing you to help us help you.

PLEASE DO NOT FEED THE MAGPIES
Wildlife carers from Kanyana Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre in Lesmurdie have requested that we do not feed our magpies, as it is doing more harm than good. While we may have the best intentions it leads to many health & behavioural problems for the birds. It also often leads to the death of young magpies from metabolic bone disease, caused by them eating & their parents feeding them the wrong types of food. This disease leads to deformed beaks & bones, making it very difficult for the young birds to stand & fly. A young, deformed bird from Hillview golf course was recently taken to Kanyana & had to be euthanased as its condition was so bad.
Bread, mince & cheese in particular and too much of any type of food e.g. raw oats are all no-nos, according to Dr Deborah Monks, a Brisbane bird vet. This is reinforced by Murdoch University’s Healthy Wildlife, Healthy Lives website, which discourages feeding saying it leads to “nutritional imbalances, increased risk of disease & disruption in natural animal behaviour”.
Behavioural changes include creating a dependency on your feeding, rather than the birds foraging naturally for grubs & insects & eating dead animals. It also makes them more aggressive, demanding that we feed them. They are already finding plenty of food on our well-vegetated course.
So please, while you may feel good about feeding the magpies and think you are helping nature, it is actually having a very detrimental affect on their welfare.
Also please be aware that feeding wildlife is now illegal in WA, to protect their health and ecology.
