As mentioned earlier, the Mollymook Whales have emerged as the 2025 WGI Pennant Champions in the Bronze Division, marking a fantastic debut season in the new zone. The Champion team - Sue O'Brien (Captain), Gai Bedford, Jaqui Bowen, Michelle Green, Jenny Moore and Penny Paterson - claimed victory in a hard-fought final showcasing determination and impressive skill under pressure.
In another great result, Mollymook Division 1 team - Sue Rayner (Captain), Sue Adams, Karen Bashford, Deb Charles, Sienna Clarke, Ros Hughes, Veronica Johnston, Sue Kelly, Kim Powell, Jenny Rymill and Trish Wickes - finished Runners-Up in their division, adding to the club's strong showing in this year's Pennant tournament.
This outstanding performance from both teams is all the more impressive considering it was Mollymook's first year competing in the WGI Pennant tournament after making the move from the FSC&TL zone. For many players it was also their first time playing on several Illawarra courses, making their success even more commendable. See the Final teams below...
