Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year


As I approach the new year as your Seniors Captain, I want to thank you all for your good wishes and offers of support for the season ahead.

My aim is for the whole seniors section to get back to more social golf following the difficult years we have had with Covid and the numerous lockdowns.

To all of you who put forward suggestions for next year’s Seniors Charity, Motor Neurone Disease, Alzheimer’s, Dementia UK, I thank you, and after taking a straw poll, I have decided that the Charity for 2023 will be 

The Dorset & Somerset Air Ambulance & Critical Response.


Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas and for health and golfing success throughout the coming New Year.

John W
