🏌️♂️ PSC Club Championship 2025 – Event Recap 🏆
Dear Members,
On Tuesday, 7th October, we held the first round of the PSC Club Championship (36-hole competition).
It was a great turnout with 75 competitors taking part.
The weather, however, was not kind to us — with heavy rain the night before, the course had to ban buggies on the fairways, and the “lift, clean, and place” rule was applied on fairways only.
It turned out to be a tough day for golf, but still, some players managed to post excellent scores!
On Friday, 10th October, we played the second round, with two tee-offs (1st Tee and 10th Tee).
Thankfully, the course had dried out and there was no rain, allowing buggies back on the course — a big relief for most golfers!
We still had lift, clean, and place in play on fairways.
After the competition, we held the presentation ceremony at the golf course, which was well attended by most players.
There was a free buffet and soft drinks for all golfers, and a raffle that was enthusiastically supported — we would like to express our heartfelt thanks to all our sponsors and supporters:
Bangkok Hospital Pattaya, The Whitehouse Condotel, Wombat & Kiwi Bar, Jomtien, and Bangpra Golf Club and Resort and Pattaya Country Club Golf course.
Special thanks to Derek Phillips and Gerd Riedler for lending their hands, working closely with our Golf Chairman – Dave and the PSC Team to make this event a great success.
Well done to everyone who took part and made this year’s Club Championship another memorable event!
Dave Smith
PSC Golf Chairman.

🏌️♂️ Pattaya Sports Club Charity Classic 2025 Eastern Star Golf Course – April 30, 2025
The Pattaya Sports Club proudly hosted its annual Charity Classic Golf Tournament on April 30th, 2025, at the picturesque Eastern Star Golf Course. This signature event supports two vital community programs: dental care for underprivileged children and swimming lessons for local youth.
In the 2024/2025 fiscal year, the Club contributed over 2 million baht to local charities and initiatives—thanks to the remarkable generosity of our members and sponsors. This year’s tournament alone raised more than 160,000 baht, underscoring the powerful impact of our collective efforts.

A heartfelt thank you to our organizing committee, led by Vice President Mr. Stan Rees, with key support from Mr. Dave Smith and Mr. John Feeney. We are also deeply grateful to our dedicated staff, whose behind-the-scenes work ensured a seamless event.
