Let me introduce you….
I'm sure you will have seen the gentleman pictured below, around the club on a regular basis, but let me introduce you to 2014's club representatives..
Graham Smith (Captain 2014) and Bob Hutchinson, along with Operations Manager Paul Heaton are here to help, guide or answer any queries or questions that you may have regarding competitions, handicaps, course news or anything else that you would want bringing to the clubs attention. All 3 will meet regularly to discuss anything that has been brought forward by our membership. Only just today, they have been out with Sean, the Head Greenkeeper to discuss what would speed up play on a Saturday morning. These guys will hopefully be the link between members and its club, and will also help run the more social events, the first one stated above.
Good luck to the guys, and don't be afraid to approach them!
