2026 New Zealand Ambassador’s Trophy Golf Event
Summer greetings.
This letter is to invite members and friends to JANZ’s annual autumn golf event. This year’s “New Zealand Ambassador’s Trophy Golf” will be held on Friday, 20 November at the Taiheiyo Club Yachiyo Course.
It will be a walking-type 18hole golf-round with a lunch break after the first nine holes. The course is easy access from central Tokyo and offers delicious lunch menus. So, I hope many of you will come and join us.
Looking forward to seeing many of you on the day.
