The Aftershock x Cathedral Lodge 2024

After a sensational debut Golf Day earlier this year, we’re pleased to share that we’ll be back at Cathedral Lodge on Friday the 16th of February 2024.

Whether you’re a current supporter of The Aftershock, or learning about us for the first time, we’d love for you to join us for an incredible day on the green as we raise awareness and funds for high-mortality rate cancers.

 

Join us for a day on the green at one of Australia’s most prestigious golf clubs

Tucked away just outside of Thornton in country Victoria, Cathedral Lodge offers 18 holes framed by the spectacular Cathedral Mountain.

On arrival, you’ll be greeted with lockers full of Royal Caddie gear, personalised golf carts and a delicious breakfast before tee off (and we can’t forget the incredible views!). From there you can expect a day of fun, with like-minded golfers playing for a great cause. The format of the day is Stableford, with a competition for the longest drive, and nearest to the pin, to cater for all handicaps.
