::: TESTIMONIALS

Dear Matthew,

I take this opportunity to congratulate you for the organisation of my firm's "2005 Golf Challenge". This year, Sydney had it's first real rain and forecasted thunderstorms for some weeks and the outlook at the appointed time of 11am for 12 noon tee off time looked bleak and uninviting.

The manner in which you took control of the situation was excellent and I note that you were able to arrange with CGC to provide a light lunch and for those clients who actually arrived to have a game , if they wished at no charge, in the then continuing downpour. You then negotiated for CGC to allow us with no cancellation fee to hold our day on the 5th December.

This arrangement was altered after lunch when against predictions, the rain eased and those that were left then decided to play our tournament. As usual you, and on this occasion, your professional, Anthony Summers, provided assistance to our teams by informal coaching on the course and by assisting some teams with excellent "compulsory drives".

Finally, to top it up, you arranged for CGC to offer the course to those of our guests (who didn't stay to play after lunch) at no extra charge the opportunity to still play 18 holes on the 5th December. We haven't yet formalised this with you or those clients, but will do so shortly.

Matthew, as a keen golfer, I am invited to participate in a number of invitational events put on by other professional organisers each year. You stand apart from the others because of the personal interest that you give to not only myself and the partners of this firm, but also to each and everyone of our guests. I commend you for your efforts.

Regards
