Anglesea Golf Club is excited to field a junior pennant team in the 2025 SWGA (South Western Golf Association) season. Our last participation in district junior golf was over 12 years ago, and this marks a key step toward rebuilding a strong junior program. With 74 junior members, most based in Melbourne, support for our recent clinics has been strong—averaging 12 players aged 11 to 16. It’s been great to see such a range of ages and growing confidence.

Thanks to Steve Lipovas, more junior programs are planned over the next year. Details are available via the club website, Pro Shop, or office.

2025 Junior Pennant Team

Junior pennant is played in 3 sections, with 6–7 teams each, using a home-and-away format. Anglesea will host on:

• October 12
• November 2
• November 16

We have 7 juniors available for the season, with handicaps from 21 to 40 all playing competitive match play for the first time. First 3 rounds team: Jack Burgess, Angus Daffy, Mack Leslie, George Morgan, James Hadley, and Harry Cook. Team Manager: Mark Burgess.

Recently, four team members took part in a friendly match play round against some of our senior players and didn’t lose a match. A big thank you to Steve Lipovas, Adam Kennedy, Toby Cumming, Nigel Powers, Brett Daffy, and Tony Speed for their time and support.

After the match, the team was introduced during club presentations and proudly received their pennant uniforms.

We’ve had fantastic feedback on the junior program and the players. On behalf of the club, we wish the team every success for the season and beyond.

Team golf builds skills, confidence, and lifelong friendships. Best of luck to our junior team go team Anglesea!
