Trophy Cabinet & NoticeBoard
Bill Preston and Bill Woolgar are pictured below in front of the Junior Trophy Cabinet and Noticeboard that was installed in the “snug” / Junior room. The noticeboard and cabinet formed an important part of the successful process of achieving “Golf Mark” for our golf club and is a fitting memorial to Bill’s father, Gordon Woolgar, who supported the junior section throughout his many years of membership and service to our club.

Members and Parents Evening
The meeting held on Wednesday 20th October was successful and well attended with 18 Juniors and parent in attendance, so well in fact that the snug was barely large enough to accomodate everyone. Three families who were interested in their children becoming members were invited for their first visit on the night. The meeting updated the parents and juniors on the year's progress so far and launched the winter coaching and playing programme, followed by a questions and answers.
