Please let us introduce our new Vice Captain for the rest of this season and Captain for the 2015 season… Chris Prewett (pictured.) As many of you will already know, Chris has been in this role before, as he was Club Captain in 2010. He enjoyed it so much, he is doing it all again! I hope you all join me in wishing Chris all the best, along with Dana Dickens, who is our Lady Captain for next year.

And now having a Vice Captain in the Mens Section, means that Chris will start his role with immediate effect, as a member ambassador, along with current Captain Graham Smith. With this in mind, I would like to thank Bob Hutchinson, for supporting Graham all of this season in the role of members ambassador. Your input was of great benefit, not only to the Captain, but also to the Club.

As the season draws to a close….

So the end of the regular season is upon us, and we head into the winter period. We have had a great summer weather-wise, and the course has been in fantastic condition all year. We have also had some great scores through the summer and quite a few members have managed to lower their handicap this summer, so well done to those that have!

The board competitions have been very well subscribed this year, and thank you to all of the members who have participated in all of the Wednesday and Saturday competitions this year.
