In a one-sided final, Van Noord was much too strong for Brett Churchill winning 10/9.
A highlight was Van Noord chipping in for birdie on the 25th hole, followed by Churchill matching the birdie with a monster putt.
In A-grade handicap, Tony Wilks came from three down to pip David Hamilton on the 19th hole.
B-grade scratch saw Brendan Bartlett go back to back, winning from Paul Brient and B-grade handicap was taken out by Mat Adams over Brian Abey.
C-grade scratch was won by Jack Crawford over Blue Hussey and Ferge McEwan Foulds prevailed over Tony Powell in the handicap.
