Golfers, get ready for the 17th annual COUNTERSTROKE GOLF CLASSIC , played on five of the Mornington Peninsula’s most esteemed golf courses.

Monday 21st February: Portsea Golf Club - NEW in the 2011 Counterstroke Classic is the opportunity to test your golfing skills at the beautiful Portsea Golf Club, which boasts a wonderful 18 hole course across a traditional rolling dunes layout.


Tuesday 22nd February: The National Ocean Course, designed by Thomson Wolveridge and Perrett, which combines the vast knowledge of its designers and is modeled on the great links of Scotland & Ireland.


Wednesday 23rd February: The Dunes - "I rate The Dunes as one of the truly great links courses that I have played in the world" states Simon Owen - New Zealand PGA Professional.


Thursday 24th February: Sorrento - "Days of golf at Sorrento are high on the list of sporting pleasures. I would rather be there than at Carnoustie, Gleneagles, Pebble Beach or Pinehurst." - Peter Thomson.


Friday 25th February:
Flinders – Overlooking Westernport Bay, Flinders provides a wonderful golfing experience combining the sense of tradition that comes with being over one hundred years old and winds up our week with players competing for the John Holland trophy.

Tamie Fraser AO, Counterstroke Golf Classic Committee Chairperson, says “the Counterstroke Classic continues to be a marvellous event, raising much needed funds for the National Stroke Foundation in its efforts to reduce stroke, promote stroke awareness, prevention, support and research.  We are looking forward to welcoming nearly 1,000 golfers to the beautiful Mornington Peninsula for a week of great golfing fun!”

The National Stroke Foundation is delighted to again receive the support of Maxwell Williams and Drummond Golf as supporters of the tournament, and we are thrilled to welcome Golf Select and GEON Print & Communications Solutions.  Their support is gratefully acknowledged.

Each day offers mutually exclusive competitions in four-ball stableford format for mixed, women’s and men’s events. A host of novel competitions run throughout the Classic, together with fabulous prizes and a sumptuous presentation luncheon on the final day. The entry fee represents excellent value – you will thoroughly enjoy yourself while doing something extremely valuable in the fight against stroke, Australia’s second biggest killer and a leading cause of disability.

So spread the word among your golfing friends and at the same time you will be helping to reduce the number of strokes that currently occur in Australia.
