2023-2024 Closing Cup: The end of another successful NATO Golf Season!

Serving as the venue for this year’s Closing Cup we were able to play Rinkven Golf Club, a championship level course that is on the outskirts of Antwerp.  Turnout for the event was high and course conditions were ideal.  Eleven of our members took part in the Closing Cup and a good time was had by all.  We welcomed two new members and are glad that they joined our group.  Brendan and Trevor welcome aboard and we look forward to future golf outings!

Steve White put on an impressive performance and won this year’s Closing Cup with a dominant display of golfing prowess.  He will retain the Cup for the next golf season and will defend it in 2025.

Once again Darryl Rupp proved to be the overall golfer to beat in club standings.  Having established a lead in points starting in month four of the 2023-2024 season, Darryl was crowned as the club champion in points standing finishing with a 10-point lead.  Chan Faymetta, who recently relocated back to Canda, finished in second place.  Our very own club president, Arvid Halvorsen, rounded out the top three in third place.

Long Drive for males was won by Trevor MacLean with a tremendous shot on hole #7.  This is Trevor’s first outing with the club.

Katrin Wien took home the long drive for females and was also came in third place overall.  Well done to you both.

Ken Emerson had a tremendous shot on hole #12 and walked away with the closest to the pin.

As our season for 2023-2024 has concluded please accept my thanks for all the support to our club.  We will continue to do our best in building a program for 2024-2025 which provides you the opportunity to play some of the best courses in Belgium.  Be on the look out for updates on the website for events in the first half of 2025.  The schedule is built we are simply waiting on confirmation from selected courses.

 

We also intend to increase outreach efforts to grow membership of the NATO Golf Club.  Please help in getting the word out.

 

Best wishes for those taking a much deserved break this summer and I look forward to what the 2024-2025 season will bring.

 

Take care and thanks again,

Jeff Smith
