RE-MEMBER SERIES
Dipper vs Buddha
Friday 2 May 2025

Get ready for an unforgettable dining experience at The Sands Torquay! We’re thrilled to introduce the Re-Member Series, a special series of dinners designed exclusively for our golf members and their guests. These special evenings will offer a rare opportunity to spend a night in the company of legendary sports celebrities, as they share captivating stories and relive moments of glory—both famous and infamous—from the world of sports.


Headlining our first dinner will be two 1989 AFL Grand Final combatants. Come, watch and listen as Geelong superstar Garry ‘Buddha’ Hocking comes face-to-face with the Hawthorn hard man who literally knocked his teeth out that day, Robert ‘Dipper’ Dipierdomenico.


Cost: $99 per person

Includes: Entrée & Main Meal, plus drink on arrival


Each evening will also feature:

  • Exciting giveaways

  • A members’ draw

  • Special presentations to honour our club’s high achievers

To mark the first Members’ dinner of 2025, we will also welcome to the stage The Sands’ very own touring professional, Ben Eccles.

Ben plied his trade on our course and while the life of a touring pro may seem like a dream, it’s not always rosy. His life is a fascinating rollercoaster.


These dinners are more than just an event—they are a celebration of The Sands community, bringing together members and guests for nights filled with laughter, inspiration, and connection. Join us as we toast to our shared love for the game, great food, and unforgettable stories.
