Mashonaland

mashonalandPicNomads Golf was first established in South Africa 1960. As its members were drawn from various clubs and played their regular competitions on a variety of different courses, the Nomads name seemed particularly appropriate.

Nomads Golf Flourished in South Africa and a club was established in Zimbabwe. There are now three clubs on Zimbabwe which operate under the umbrella of the controlling Zimbabwe body.

Nomads Golf in Zimbabwe holds its National Tournament annually and has field of up to 240 players.

The Nomads Movement has also spread to Botswana, New Zealand, Australia, the United Kingdom and Swaziland. Today there are close to 3000 Nomads spread around our clubs, all committed to our ideals of benefiting the game of golf and, in the process, raising substantial funding for causes that lend support for those less fortunate than ourselves.

Finlay (Alex) Currie 30th Year Tie

Dear Fellow Nomads,

We at Nomads have certain traditions that we have had since this illustrious organisation started some 50 years ago in South Africa. One of these is the award of ties that signify the number of years one has been a Nomad. These are presented every 5 years. Corrie Van Rensburg, for instance, was recently given his 45th year tie. Normally there is a lot of formality for this occasion with the Nomad being called up during Prize giving at one of our monthly games.

 

There are times, however, when ‘The Rules’ are implemented in a more casual way because of unusual circumstances. Last year Finlay (Alex) Currie decided that he had reached that stage of his life when he needed to be near his children and live in the UK. He is unlikely to play in one of our games for the foreseeable future. So it was decided to present him with his 30th tie on Thursday 19th March at Royal Harare.

Here are a few pictures taken at the occasion. Congratulations Finlay. On behalf of Nomads Mashonaland,  I would like to take this opportunity to wish Finlay many more years of golf

Yours Nomadically

Dumi Mabhena
