Melville Glades Green Jacket
2025-
The Melville Glades Green Jacket is a mixed novelty golf event that notionally reflects the tradition carried out at the Masters PGA event at the Augusta National Golf Club in the United States of America. Both events result in the winner being donned with “the green jacket”.
The MGGC Green Jacket was donated by Joan Henley, whose husband, Neil, also a former club member, bought and wore the jacket at the club. (See the associated record MGGC Green Jacket for more background history.)
The nature and concept of the event is conveyed in the flyer attachment for the 2026 event and the extract below that describes how the day was conducted at the club.
'Join us for Masters Monday 13th April at Melville Glades, where members can start the morning watching the final holes of the Masters from Augusta before heading out to compete in our own Masters event.
The clubhouse will open early, with a buffet breakfast served before the round, followed by an 8:00am shotgun start. The winner on the day will be presented with the Melville Glades Green Jacket, making it one of the more unique events on the club calendar.
