The great support shown by many Yarrambat members last Sunday really helped the team lift and take that last win to go through the season undefeated. Now we head out to the illustrious (and dare I say spectacular), Greg Norman designed, Eastern Golf Club in Yering to take on second place finishers Goonawarra GC for the honour of hoisting the Division 6 Pennant. (Mitch, take note we will need a new flag pole!) 

Play will commence from the South Course 10th tee at 12:15pm and, not only will YGC supporters be welcome, they will be encouraged, solicited, badgered, cajoled and harangued into turning out to cheer our team as they strive to bring home the Club’s first VGA Pennant. 

It has been a long journey form when our humble little club first ventured into the ranks of the ‘privileged’, private clubs, and next season sees the team step up a level to take on Heritage, Box Hill, Gisborne, Churchill-Waverly, Berwick-Montuna, Mt Derrimut and Goonawarra as we hope to continue the success of this season.

But there is still one job left to do for Division 6 – BRING HOME THE FLAG!

There is nothing more powerful than seeing a wave of Yarrambat members walking the fairway behind our lads, the lift it brings to the team’s spirit and their game is immeasurable. 

Let’s see how many true Yarrambatians (okay I just made that up) can give up even a few hours of their Sunday to show their support. There will be other great finals matches that will be on at the same time, so the ‘spectator value’ is huge and the facilities are excellent (and the beer is pretty cheap too!)

The Yarrambat spirit is fierce, one more contest! 

Let the cheer of victory echo across the Yarra Valley and all the way home – Go BATS!
