Having been a member of South Moor Golf Club for several years now, I am privileged and proud to have the honour of being Senior Section Captain for the upcoming year “2024”.
I am pleased to announce that my Vice Captain for this season will be Paul Taylor.
Thank you also to last year’s captain John McGough and our Seniors Committee for their hard work and dedication throughout the year, I look forwards to working alongside you(s) in “2024”.
Our Section is open to any club member over the age of 55, as a section we run a good variety of formal and informal competitions, the majority of which are handicap qualifying.
We have senior team competitions against other local clubs, and I do hope I will be able to count on your support for our home and away team fixtures this upcoming season.
As part of our annual program, we have well supported away days and an away weekend, played at other clubs/hotels.
From an external perspective we organize three highly successful Senior Open Competitions throughout the season.
I would like to take this opportunity to wish everyone an enjoyable and successful season and I look forwards to playing golf with all of you throughout the season. To anyone interested please come along, we are a very amenable group, and we look forwards to welcoming you.
There is a £5 annual voluntary social contribution which provides an ‘All Day Breakfast’ at two of our summer competitions and a subsidy towards our annual Christmas Lunch.
