Jakarta, Here We Come.....The Staroba-Koba Tin Invitation 2011

Wednesday, 9th February 2010
Staroba's frequent forays overseas, especially to Indonesia, had put us in touch with like-minded golfers from these places and last year, we received an invitation form Koba Tin Indonesia to play a Ryder's Cup format match against their team in Jakarta. Koba Tin pooled all their resources, held practice rounds for the selection of their players many times in Jakarta to pick the best amongst their players. Staroba, on the other hand, sent out invitation to the regular overseas tour participants, before opening up to some winners of the January 2011 Medal competition.
The 'prize money' was big - a total of 150 million rupiah. 90 million would be awarded to the winning team and the rest divided for the daily winners.

The Staroba team went with a set of 3 different coloured team shirt for each day and a team cap to match. The hotel accomodation and tournament fees were courtesy of Koba Tin but Staroba contributed to a portion of the total prize money.
