Vale – Eric Barrass

The Board wishes to advise Members of the sad news of the passing of long time Club Member Eric Barrass on 17th May 2022.
Eric was a 50 year Member of the Warragul Country Club and as such was extremely well known to many generations of Club Members. He joined the Club in 1965 and together with his partner Val, a Club Life Member, forged a long and enduring association with this Club.
He was Captain of the Club in 1971-72 and his name adorns our Honour Boards, having won the George Lowe trophy (1982,1988) and mixed foursome championships in 1973.
Eric loved his golf and was a regular player right up until his passing at age 98. He was an outstanding Member of this Club and he will be sadly missed by all.
The Club extends its heartfelt condolences to Leigh & Peter and the Barrass family.
Thank you,
Michael Hodge
Chief Executive Officer
