On Friday morning after loading your rental car with your gear enjoy the 40 minute drive up to Terrace Downs High Country Resort set in the Canterbury High country below Mount Hutt, once there it's the monthly back tee challenge where you have the chance to win some great prizes if you can keep your eyes off the scenery, this competition is optional, if you just want to play a casual round off the forward tee then that is fine and the cost will still be the same.  After your round there will be some hot snacks.

Saturday you will be playing at the Clearwater Resort Course where the annual New Zealand PGA is held, this course is all class and was designed by our own Sir Bob Charles and John Darby, it has loads of trout filled lakes to avoid and plenty of bunkers.

Then on Sunday a round at the oldest club in Christchurch, the Shirley Links Course where the course will surprise you as its a real gem and has had plenty of NZ Opens held on it as well as numerous amateur events, it also has water hazards and plenty of bunkers, to play well on this tour you have to have your A game as these courses are all a real challenge, and if its windy don't plan on playing to your handicap.

The warm setting of this hotel is not only reflected in the stylish rooms, sumptuous restaurants and spacious public areas, but most impotantly, it is ideally situated central to Victoria Square and beside the Avon River, the Crown Plaza has the city at it's doorstep. It is physically linked to the Christchurch Convention Centre and adjacent to the Christchurch Casino, and just minutes from all leading attractions.
