Golf: Position ‘important new challenge’
Otago Golf Club professional Shelley Duncan has been appointed to a new position as the director of all golfing services at the club.
Duncan will be responsible for all competitions, corporates, subscriptions and membership, green fees and the hire of equipment.
She will liaise with the course superintendent, Craig Parata, on the upkeep of the course and will continue to coach and oversee the Otago Golf Shop.
The club will take over the running of the shop and be responsible for the employees and stock.
‘‘The change of structure has been mooted for six months as we have looked at a new strategy and business plan to take the club into the future,” general manager John Molyneux said.
Molyneux has resigned his position effective from the end of this month but stresses he will still be on hand. He will continue to live at Karitane and to play his golf at Balmacewen.
He has been appointed to the position of South Island regional manager with Brother International and will spend some time in Christchurch.
