How time fly's by
As we approach the middle of the golfing year and look forward to Birkdale, it's incredible how this year has flown by so far. It seems like only yesterday that I started my role as professional, but it's now 8 and ½ months ago since mid October when I started. I would like to thank you all for your support and kind words of encouragement so far, and I hope that I can keep improving the service we provide for you all. I haven't played as much golf as I would have liked so far, but the few outings I have had with the Captain in the club matches against Hallamshire and Woodsome Hall have turned out quite well, with us winning both our matches.
We have a busy spell of golfing events coming over the next few months with Presidents Day and Captains Day the AM AM's both Gents and Ladies, Invitation day and the Club Championship the list goes on and on and the course is now looking excellent thanks to Adrian, Clint, Paul, Jamie and Tom so here's to a great golfing few months at Wortley.
Lady's Captains' Day
Saturday was Lady's Captains' Day and what a great day it was for Sylvia Burton the Lady Captain. We had lovely weather, with an excellent turnout, along with a tricky little putting competition which we set up all made for a good fun day. The Ladies then came back in the evening for a meal and prize presentation.
Pro's Competition
I had another of my Pro's Comps on Saturday and we had four players tied at the top on 38 points…
