HISTORY
The Junior Jug is an Inter District Match Play Tournament played
between Junior girls of the seven districts of Queensland - Far North
Queensland, North Queensland, Central Queensland, Sunshine Coast
& Burnett District, Downs and South Western, Brisbane & District and
Gold Coast.
The event was the brain child of two of our successful golfers who
began as Juniors in the late 1950’s, namely Pam Langford (nee Tait)
and Gail Corry.
Pam came from a golfing family, both parents being ‘A’ grade Golfers
and playing regularly at Indooroopilly Golf Club and Gail was the
daughter of the then Golf Professional at Bargara Golf Club just south
of Bundaberg.
In the early days there was little competition available for Junior Girls
and both Pam and Gail played in the senior competitions. Fortunately
the administration at both
National and State Levels recognised that if golf was going to progress, junior girls in the game would need special
programs as young players were the ‘future of the game.’
In 1961 the first ever Junior Interstate series was played and for this first series only three states competed - New
South Wales, Victoria and Queensland. Junior girls then were aged under 21 years however this age was to be
revised as more Juniors started to play the game of golf and more talent was discovered and developed.
The Burtta Cheney Junior Interstate Series, was being played annually and both Gail and Pam thought that a
Queensland Intra District Match play series (in the lead up to our Junior Team travelling to the Burtta Cheney
event) would be an ideal preparation for the Queensland Junior Team.
Meg Nunn, a recognised name in golf administration in Queensland, finally convinced the then “QLGU” that an
Intra Queensland Match Play Tournament should be staged. The concept was at long last adopted and the first
Meg Nunn Tournament was held in Rockhampton in 1983.
Gail continued to play in representative teams at both State and National levels whilst Pam was representing
Queensland in both Junior and Second tournaments and becoming involved in Golf Administration.
In the late 1970’s there was still no opportunity for young golfers in Queensland to compete in a teams events
within the state, so Pam and Gail initiated a Junior Girls tournament fashioned along the lines of the Meg Nunn
Tournament and as such, the Junior Jug was established.
The Junior Jug was first played at Bargara Golf Club in December 1984.
Golf is a very individual game and to foster team spirit, Gail and Pam were keen for a Foursome Match Play Round
to be included in the tournament as one of the rounds. The early Junior Jug events did have a Foursome Match
Play as one of the rounds, however this format has changed over the years to be what it is today.

The Meg Nunn Salver is an Inter-District Matchplay Event - a competition contested

Each team consists of 6 players. Maximum handicap for the event is 16 and full

player’s win/loss record for the season is taken into account. The handicap of players’ opponents will also be
taken into consideration in their win/loss record. Participation in BDLGA scheduled tournaments and
championships is also taken into consideration.
In 2019 the Meg Nunn Salver was played at Southport Golf Club and won by Central Qld/Central Highlands. Team
members (pictured below) were Jackie Zuidam (Brisbane), Megan Bell (Riverlakes), Lyndal Plant (Indooroopilly),
Collette Byrne (McLeod), Leigh Christensen (Nudgee) Emily Byrne (Brisbane). Non-playing Captain was Cheryl

2020 MEG NUNN SALVER (INTER-DISTRICT MATCH PLAY)
AYR GOLF CLUB - MONDAY 7TH TO FRIDAY 10TH SEPTEMBER 2020
A HISTORY OF THE MEG NUNN SALVER
AS WRITTEN BY HER DAUGHTER ANNE ALLETSON BROWN
Early in the 1970's, Meg was the Country Vice-President of the Queensland Ladies Golf Union. In this role she
undertook to visit as many of the country golf clubs in Queensland as she could, and I believe that only 3 clubs
were not visited over a period of some 5 - 7 years.
One western course she visited boasted that they had been able to put the grader over the fairways the week
before her visit!
Meg was accompanied at various times by Johnnie Boyle, a
President of the QLGU and other times by Val Webster, also
a President or Vice-President. They would fly to say
Townsville, then drive west - not a mean feat for a couple
of ladies of their age. Every course they visited, Meg played
as she was a single marker in those days and was involved
in the course rating.
Meg began to understand that country ladies felt they were
left out of the "QLGU" - that this body represented only
those ladies who played golf in the south eastern corner of
the State. At the time, districts were being formed. So the concept of an inter-district match play tournament
on handicap, was put before the QLGU committee and the event came into being in the early 1980's.
Pam Ranger, a member and committee person of the Surfers Paradise Golf Club presented the antique silver
tray that now bears the name "Meg Nunn Salver" as the districts voted to name the event in her honour.
The first Salver was played in Rockhampton in 1983. Far North Queensland did not send a team as they were
a newly formed district and did not have the funds to send one. The draw had been done and Gold Coast were
to play Central Queensland first match off. Val Webster tossed the coin for the honour and Gold Coast won the
honour. At that time I was captain and the lowest marker of the Gold Coast team so I hit the first ball ever in the
tournament named in honour of my Mum. I still get tears in my eyes when I think of it.
My mother’s concept for the tournament was that the "grass-root turn up every week" country player could
have the opportunity to play match play, represent her District and that each year new friends would be made
amongst the teams and the Tournament be one of good golf, good companionship and great rivalry.
It was not Meg's idea that the players who were members of the state team should be included in the Meg
Nunn Salver as they had ample opportunity to attend interstate tournaments of a higher level.
I have a replica of the salver here in our office, also the photos presented to her on the 15th anniversary of the
tournament as a constant memory of great golfing days.
