Captain's Drive In 2008

The Captain’s Drive In was enjoyed by over 100 members and guests of the Links Golf Club on New Year’s Day. New Club Captain, David Hole who has taken over the role from Mike Denley, was presented with the Captain’s green blazer and new club tie before driving a ball from the first tee to mark the start of the year. David, who plays off 14, has been a member at the Links for 16 years after joining from Kington Golf Club. David said “ I have thoroughly enjoyed my year as Vice Captain and I would like to congratulate Mike Denley on a successful year. This is a proud moment for me. It really is a tremendous honour to become Captain of the club. My main concern as Captain is to ensure members of the Links have an enjoyable year at the club.”

Also driving in was new Junior Captain, 15 year old Sarah Smith, from Great Wilbraham. Sarah has reduced her handicap to six during her year as Junior Vice Captain and plays for the ladies County side.

New Ladies Captain, Jackie Casburn drove into office on Tuesday. Jackie was presented with her badge of office by 2007 Ladies Captain, Barbara Coe.

New Vice Captain’s are Dave Tyers, Hilary Radford and Henry Ellis.
