VALE ~ George Christopoulos

From President Peter Ewen

Greetings all.

It is my sad duty to report that George Christopoulos has died overnight. I understand he was moved into Mary Potter Hospice early last week but took a turn for the worse last night.

George was an extremely hard worker for MBA Golf. He was our immediate past captain. He attended 18 Hornibrooks before his recent illness. The last being in Hobart in 2017.

His funeral will be held on Wednesday 13th November at 11am at The Church of St George 60 Rose St Thebarton.

There will be a brief committal service at 1pm in the Florey Chapel Centennial Park.

This will be followed by a wake at Alexandra's (his daughter) place at Panorama. Address to be advised.

The Club is arranging a tribute in The Advertiser this week.

Our thoughts go out to Christine, Alexandra and his extended family.

Peter Ewen
President, MBA of SA Golf Club.

History of MBASA Golf Club 


A Master Builders' Association of S.A. Golf Committee was created early in 1957 when, with the co­operation of Brian Galloway, then Secretary of the Association, a Sub­committee composed of Bert Baulderstone, Paul Dalwood, Jack Horton-Evins and Hugh Docker was formed to organise a golf match between Members and Associates.

The inaugural Golf Day was held on Friday, September 20th, 1957, at Kooyonga Golf Club. The Association President of the day, George Brimblecombe, commenced play with a glorious "airie". Fifty-two players took part in the original tournament which has since developed into regular games being played by builder and supply members, at various courses around Adelaide.
 
The Golf Sub-committee of the S.A. Association became a permanent section, organising annual golf days. These became an all day function with a barbecue being served on the course for lunch and a "watering hole", usually under the supervision of the late ever popular Bob O'Neill.

The first Chairman of the Golf Sub-committee was Bert Baulderstone. It was Bert who proposed at the M.B.A. Convention in Perth in 1958 that an Interstate Golf Tournament be held annually between the member states of the Master Builders' Federation of Australia.  ..... (more) ....
