Recently, while clearing my cupboard, I found an old bottle of whisky buried amongst my golf accessories. Nothing unusual I might say, except it was labelled “19th prize, 2004 Charity Golf Raffle Draw”. Gosh! That’s 10 years ago, and now I remember it was my first charity golf tournament after getting my handicap. I played in that tournament, but did not score well enough to win any prizes, but won this in the lucky draw! I totally forgot about this prize and it got buried under all golf balls, towels and tees I had accumulated over time. Fast forward to May, where I just participated in NSRCC Charity Golf 2014. Again, our Greens Committee and staff of NSRCC took the lead to organise this fantastic event to raise funds for the less fortunate. A pat on the back for all the exhausted souls involved in organising this event!
Unfortunately, bad weather ravaged the second day of the tournament. This was first time in the ten years that the weather prevented completion of the full 18-holes on Sunday and participants had to be contented with a rain check and lucky draw of the prizes! So do check our club website to see if you are one of the lucky prize winners. You can also read about all the exciting bits of Charity Golf in this issue.
Many years ago, I was involved in setting up a company and I remember the hard work of being the first employee and having to do everything yourself. So it was interesting when I met an avid (and strong) golfer at our club who recently left his job to start a restaurant business. After chatting with him, I found his story very interesting and persuaded him to include it in our magazine. You can read about his journey and decide for yourself if it is possible to balance the love of golf with a new business. Hopefully it will fire up your hidden entrepreneurship talents too!
Our Air force course will be affected by the airport development works. In this issue, we take a look back at the course and some significant moments and milestones. Golfers who are long hitters will miss the longest nine holes at our Changi location. It was also here that the first “Albatross” was scored by a member at our club. At that time, I could not fathom what that was and it was only later on I found out that it was a very difficult
accomplishment, and the probability of achieving it was lower than a hole-in-one! You can still see their names on a plaque outside the changing room. Why not ask them to describe how it happened before the course is gone? At the same time, look out for updates from the Engagement committee in August as they will be organising meeting sessions with members to brainstorm for our golf course and facilities.
For our bowlers, we were fortunate to have Champion bowler Mika Koivuneimi at our club recently. He is an accomplished bowler and has won bowling titles in 19 countries. He came here to conduct a clinic for our bowlers and you can catch all the action inside this issue. During these two months, our club is also organising interesting bowling activities such as camps and festival bowls. So do look out for them, sign up and enjoy.
Under the upcoming events section, you will spot several activities for kids that worth signing up for. We also have an article on how to get your child started on golf and also have an ongoing Instagram contest where members and their children can participate to win attractive prizes. Children grow up very quickly, it wasn’t so long ago that my own kids completed their swimming certification at NSRCC’s swimming pool. Now that they are all grown up, they don’t stick to me very much, except when I find nice places to eat! Fortunately, I have many NSRCC friends who are foodies and have introduced me to great food in and around our club. Perhaps this could be fuel for future stories? Do drop us a line if you have any interesting stories of places around NSRCC Changi or Kranji Sanctuary.
Now as I get back to my lucky draw bottle of whisky. I intend to open it, take a sip and wait.... I have to say “yes it still tastes great and very vintage!” I think I can look forward to another 10 years of great stuff here. Cheers!

N SRCC recently organised a special bowling clinic by
professional bowler, Mika Koivuniemi on 1 & 2 June 2014 at NSRCC Resort Bowl. The 16-hour bowling clinic that spread over the course of two days covered topics such as the fundamentals of bowling, advanced techniques to peak performances. Mika imparted his knowledge and skills through classroom teachings and even going in-depth on the science of bowling using different props to explain various techniques, deliverables, lane practices and the right mental state of peak performance.
Parents of our NSRCC bowlers also joined this fruitful session to hear Mika speak about the strengths and ways to improve for each of our passionate bowlers. Our bowlers definitely gained a lot of knowledge and newly-found skills through this wonderful opportunity to learn from the pro in the flesh! We are hopeful that all the hard work that has gone into this bowling clinic will pay off when our bowlers show their skills on the lanes!

seen&heard3 MInUTES wITH MIKa KOIvUnIEMI
Which stage in your life did you first realise you had a keen interest in bowling?
Mika: I’d say some time in my teenage years. I did some sports as a kid and my main focus went into bowling when I was 15 or 16 years old. A couple of years after that I felt I had a really good chance of getting better at this sport.
Do you have interest in other sports, and do you usually play them apart from bowling?
Mika: I really don’t do any other sports, but I do like many Pro-Bowlers, and they golf. I’ve never played golf. I like to play tennis sometimes, but not regularly. And of course I take care of myself. I run almost every day, 4 – 5 days a week at least. I keep up with my physical well-being this way.
We’ve read that your nickname when on tour is “Major Mika” because of the first two PBA titles you won in major championships. Describe those moments as you remember them?
Mika: Of course winning my first title was one of the memorable moments in my bowling career because that’s when you feel like you belong in the PBA when you get your first win. It was major because it was a big thing for me. Everybody always wants to win the majors. I basically bowled one of my idols, Pete Weber for the title back then, so it was really a great moment in my career.
My second title was the US Open, everybody thinks it’s the most difficult tournament to win the PBA, because of the lane conditions and formats. Winning that, is probably the highlight of my career. Everybody wants it, winning this top-seed tournament. So I’m really happy to get the nickname “Major Mika”, I love it. I’ve a feeling that I have been bowling pretty good all these years in the majors and it is an honour to have your name connected with it.
Does it take a lot of practice before each championship you participate in? Could you describe the training process?
Mika: Not really, I take every tournament as part of my practice. I bowl many tournaments in a row and you get better each time. All my life, I’ve been bowling at a lot of tournaments. That’s how I grew up in Finland, I used to bowl many years in a row, more than thousands of games in a year at tournaments. But, if I have too much before the swing starts, I will cut down. For me, it’s getting the right feeling to sharpen my skills and do different things with the bowling ball.
I think my routine is pretty high, I bowl around the year, especially now where the World Bowling Tour is throughout the year, you get to travel globally. I don’t do anything special, sometimes I feel like my form is not what I like it to be, and then I practice a lot to fix my physical game.
I don’t like to over-practice and feel tired when I get into the tournament. I like to feel ready
and feel like “I feel the ball”. I need to have the feel when the ball comes out of my hand. Then I’m looking at that kind of shape my bowling ball makes on the lanes.
What would your best advice be to anyone who wants to make a big career in bowling?
Mika: I think the biggest advice is, there is no shortcut. You need to work hard, it’s like any other sport. The people who work hard usually get the best results. There are always talented and less talented individuals. Most of the time, the less talented work harder than the really talented; In the end they come out better than those guys.
So it really doesn’t matter how much talent you have, of course you need to have some, but if you work really hard, you can excel in anything.

Greenside Matters– June 2014
Dear Members,
I would like to extend my sincere appreciation and gratitude to all those who supported our Charity Golf 2014, our Club’s signature event. Played over the course of 17 & 18 May, it attracted over 900 golfers and sponsors. Despite the unpredictable weather, we still managed to tee-off for a meaningful cause.
With the recent announcement by the government surrounding the land acquisition to make way for airport expansion, the golf course at Changi will have to be content with 18 holes for the time being. Don’t be disheartened by the disruptions, we are working hard towards minimising it, so that our loyal members can continue to enjoy their golf and the good level of service. Do look out for special privileges for members in the coming months.
As one good thing comes out of another, we have now put together a string of golf events which we hope will be of interest to you. Our in-house events are played on weekends and we hope that it would be good news to you that it is now open to both ordinary and basic members (prevailing and relevant fees apply for both categories).
For more information on our Club’s events, please check www.nsrcc.com.sg
Additional golfing eventsThe Club has included 2 more events into our golf fixture for 2014:
Ladies Stroke Play Championship (October 2014)• Open Division for ladies handicap index 18.4 and below, played over 54 holes• Best total gross score will be declared the winner

How to Get Your Child Started in GolfWe all love the game of golf. Golfers realise the beauty of the game and how it can parallel life in so many ways. A 5-year old won’t understand this. As parents we want to introduce the game to our children and get them to also love the game that we have grown to love so much. But for a young child that has to be a fun process. There always has to be that one underlying fundamental reason why they are learning the game, because they enjoy it, it has to be fun!
There is so much to learn in the game but it can’t be rushed. There has to be that time to reflect and to enjoy self discovery...the game can’t all be spoon fed to them. There is a time for discipline and there is a time for freedom in learning the game, understanding this is important. It can’t all feel like work out there otherwise it won’t feel like a game that you are learning to play.
what age to start?When they have interest, even just a glimmer of interest, then that is the age to start them. That could be at the age of 4 or 14, but when they are interested is when they should start, not earlier.
How do you know if they have interest? There are many ways to tell and you will know. It could be a question they ask, maybe a reaction to seeing the game played on TV, maybe their friend plays but most often it is because the parents play and they are intrigued as to what is attracting their parents to play. Don’t cloud your judgement of their interest with your own interest, it’s easy to do that as parents, I see it all the time. You can waste a lot of time and money, and damage the child’s morale if you’re not careful here.
what to do?My suggestion is, if you are a golfer yourself bring your child along with you to the Range when you go to do your own practice. Let them watch you and quietly observe their reactions to what they see. Spell out to them the safety regulations at the Range, very important. Last thing you want is for an accident to happen, can’t think of a bigger turn off to the game than that. If their reaction is positive, ask at the Academy if they have a junior club suitable for your child to play with for a while. At my Academy we always have clubs of different sizes and are sure
to have one suitable for your child to borrow. Get them to mimic you, get them to mimic others at the Range, it doesn’t matter, just let them swing without detailed instruction.Show them how to hold but leave it at that. Copying someone is not detailed. The kids are generally pretty good
at it. It’s the quickest way to learn. They don’t have to know what they are doing, they won’t be writing a book about it, so just do that.
What you are crossing your fingers here for is a lucky punch, that one swing that makes contact with the ball and the ball flies. Watch their eyes light up! You’ve got them on the end of your hook now, however, be careful reeling them in, they can still come off the hook. It is best to keep that first little session just that, little. For goodness sakes, don’t slog hundreds of balls thinking this is the best way to start them off and please, please, please don’t smother them with instruction. It is not the time to flex your knowledge muscles on the game. You are trying to get them interested. Just play with them. I deal with new golfers all the time and believe me it is so easy to scare them away during this early phase with too much information. Be patient, if you still have their attention after this, you stand a good chance of having them ask you to tag along next time you come to the Range.
Do this for a while, no rush. Each time give them a little more instruction but always keep the instruction basic, as in set up related and/or obvious swing shape related. You will reach a point where you realise you need help and that’s when you seek the help of the Golf Academy. We can take it from there. Our programs are well structured and provide the students to grow at their own pace.
My other recommendation is that your child, once they have some basic skills behind them, actually get out and play a game of golf at an Executive Golf Course somewhere. NSRCC has a magnificent Par 3 Golf Course perfect for this purpose. Even if you think they may not be ready, they need to experience the game being played. Don’t go too long before this happens otherwise there is a chance they will get too used to the controlled environment of Driving Ranges, the comfort of the whole Range experience and confuse that as “golf”. Get them out where the game is played as soon as it is possible.
Bonding TimeThere is no better bonding time with your child than the time spent through playing golf together. It gives you the chance to teach your child some basic life skills whilst playing golf and just simply share time together....the best!
Good luck with introducing your child to the game of golf. Have fun with it and remember to knock on our door when the time is right to pass the baton.

Charity Golf Swings in $328,000 for Charity
F or the first time in many years, the game was met with an extremely heavy
downpour on the second day of Charity Golf 2014, causing the games at both Changi and Kranji to be paused for hours and even delaying the shot gun start. However, that did not dampen the golfers’ spirits as they waited till the courses were finally opened!
This was also the second year in succession that the live auction was held in the evening during dinner. Items available for bidding were a Republic of Singapore Air Force (RSAF) Black Knights Aircraft Model signed by LTC Joseph Leong otherwise known as Black Knight 1, and the intricate NSRCC Air Force Course Hole 6 model, which was truly a one of its kind design and a keepsake which will serve as a memory of this course. Despite having a handful of bidders with their sights set on these items, both were successfully sold to one of our longtime supporters, Mr Dennis Lim for $2,000 and $5,888 respectively.
The Club is honoured to be able to play an active role in giving back to the needy within our community, and we would like to once again express our great appreciation to the many people who joined hands and collaborated as one to make this event a great success. Every effort and contribution will make a difference to the lives of our selected beneficiaries for 2014.
The annual NSRCC Charity Golf successfully raised $328,000 for the children in need and severely disabled servicemen from five beneficiaries – Children’s Cancer Foundation, Infant Jesus Homes and Children’s Centres, Life Community Services Society, SAF Benevolent Fund and SAF Care Fund.
Gloomy skies and even a minor ponding
Not forgetting our players at Kranji

seen a total of over 200 hole-in-ones scored by very talented individuals!
Together with the two other courses at Changi, it has seen its fair share of notable competitions over the years such as the Singapore Open Amateur Golf Championships held in August 1994 and 1995, the 1996 Merlion Masters and the Ericsson Singapore Open in 1998. In addition, it also held numerous events such as NSRCC Charity Golf, SAF Day and President’s Trophy to cite a few examples.
So many of our members have spent a lot of time at NSRCC on our golf grounds all these years, putting away to ensure that they get the perfect swing.
Air Force Course has certainly provided good challenges for our members wanting to be the best at their game. Mr Teh Kian Song, who has been a member with NSRCC for 6 years, says “I feel very nostalgic when I think about this course because I have had a lot of good memories here. The course has provided a lot of challenges for me and I enjoyed all my games. I will also not forget and surely miss the bee hoon from the uncle at the halfway house!”
Our Air Force Course is definitely one of the most scenic courses here at NSRCC. Surely, most our avid golf players in the club have taken beautiful shots of some of the most beautiful sunsets in the east of Singapore at this course.
As we bid this course a fond farewell, let us commemorate the closure of our Air Force Course with a montage of pictures from years gone by. At the same time, let us all look forward to extensive new courses of a higher calibre in the future of our club.

Balancing Love of Golf with a new Business
memberfeature
W hen William Tay took a break from his corporate job in the insurance industry a few years ago, all
he wanted to do was to play golf, a whole lot of it. And he did just that, almost making NSRCC his second home as he was determined to improve his game. There was also a lot more time to catch up with old friends after hitting the fairways.
But he never did return to corporate life where his last position was Head of Strategy and Business Intelligence at a major insurance company. He had decided by then that he wanted to strike out on his own in the food business, an industry that he is familiar with and has a personal interest in. After all, his very first job was in the food and beverage sector and he has a network of contacts from that period.
Once that decision was made, a massive amount of work had to be done. Identifying the right business partners, food concept and locations was just the beginning. Then there was financing to be arranged, design of kitchen and dining space to be finalised and not forgetting a key element of the F&B industry, the hiring and training of service staff.
Fast forward to today and William’s French Japanese cafe chain already has outlets in Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Penang and Melbourne. According to William, the cafe’s cuisine marries French culinary flair with the clean taste profile and precision in execution of Japanese cooking. The results are dishes that are tasty and consistent when they emerge from the kitchen.
It is also about making their dishes accessible to the younger crowd and the average family. “We aim to bring fine-dining to a casual dining environment. Our pricing and positioning are targeted at the mass segment and our food is affordable to all. Take soufflés for instance, it is typically available only in fine-dining restaurants but is offered at our cafe” he says.
Besides the popular soufflé, the menu offers an eclectic mix of pancakes, French toasts, Japanese curries, salads, baked rice and pastas, And the most expensive item on the menu is priced at a pocket-friendly $18.80!
The cafe’s unique concept and affordable prices have not gone unnoticed by food bloggers and social media was abuzz with chatter soon after it opened. With outlets now at two busy shopping malls, William and his partners are already looking to open one more at another location. “The two stores have performed well and above our expectations and our customers in the northern and eastern parts of Singapore have been requesting for outlets nearer where they live,” he explains.
The cafe is now poised to expand aggressively overseas too. Franchised outlets are scheduled to open in Phnom Penh and Manila in July this year. On the table are planned outlets in countries like China, Indonesia, Thailand and even the United States.
memberfeature
All these initiatives are keeping William and his partners extremely busy managing operational as well as marketing issues. And like most other food establishments facing a tight labour market, they have their share of manpower challenges to overcome as well. In fact grappling with this problem led them to come up with innovative point-of-sale solutions that look so promising that they are now planning to commercialise and turn it into a separate business.
When asked if he has any advice for those who may be keen to venture into business, William modestly insists that he is not qualified to advise as he is in the midst of his own start-up journey. Drawing on his personal experience, he does however share that people should go into a business that they know and understand and better still, with good partners who can offer different skill sets. And above all, to expect the unexpected and be prepared for anything, he warns.
While there have been many changes on the professional front for William, one activity has remained constant. He still tries to play golf with his kakis on weekends as much as he can, something that he has been doing since joining NSRCC more than six years ago.
“There are demands on my schedule now that may leave me with less time for golf during certain periods. Overall, it is still quite balanced as I am still able to take time out over the weekend to hit the fairways with friends,” he says.
Truly spoken like the busy businessman and passionate golfer that he is!
