Intercollegiate golf

By Kelvin McCrone | Posted: Thursday March 6, 2025

On Monday, 9 golfers had the opportunity to represent the school in the Otago Eagles Intercollegiate Golf Tournament held at the Cromwell Golf Club.

After a practice round in 32 degree temperatures on Sunday, Monday dawned drizzly and windy. Not ideal conditions for golfers.

However, the boys made the most of their opportunities and some decent scores were posted. Oliver Deveraux impressed with a 4 under par back nine to card our best score of 77.

Whilst our teams missed out on the podium, there are some really positive signs for OBHS golf in the future. A number of boys are now putting their hands up to represent the school in Interschool events and taking their games to new levels.

Exciting times ahead.

The team was:

Oliver Devereux

Jackson Hughes

Matthew Chiles

Jonty Smith

Will Pyper

Alex Smith

Race Porter

Tane Panirau

Ben Brown
