The Board of Byron Bay Golf Club is pleased to announce the appointment of Scott Barnett as the Club’s new Course Superintendent.

Scott joins us with extensive industry experience, having held senior turf management roles at Margaret River Golf Club, Kennedy Bay, Boonah, and several other high-quality facilities. He brings a strong professional background and a proven track record in course presentation and team leadership.

Scott will officially commence in the role on Monday, 2 March.

As Scott is relocating to the region, he is currently seeking short-term accommodation while securing a permanent residence. He will be relocating with a small French Bulldog (approximately 14kg). If any members have a studio, unit, or suitable accommodation available—either short-term or with longer-term security—please contact the Club via the BBGC Manager email address. Any assistance would be of significant benefit to both Scott and the Club.

The Board would also like to sincerely thank Gus for stepping up during this transitional period and for leading a well-orchestrated summer renovation program.

Please join us in welcoming Scott to the Club. Members can look forward to tight greens and continued course improvements.

Warm regards,

Sam Leo

On behalf of the BBGC Board
