ORCHARDLEIGH Golf Club Ladies’ section celebrated another wonderful year at their recent annual Christmas lunch and trophy presentation which was extremely well supported with both playing and non-playing members in attendance.
A number of new members have recently joined the club, including the new Ladies’ club champion, Sue Marshall, who said, “As a relatively new golfer and member I have been made to feel so welcome by all the ladies and have been introduced to a new world I never knew existed. Coffee mornings, opens and matches have given me a whole new experience and it has been simply wonderful. I would recommend anyone to make contact with the club and take the first steps.”
Orchardleigh Golf Club Ladies are always welcoming new members of all abilities. The group is very active and has teams in the Bristol and District Alliance League as well as the Somerset Interclub League where a number of clubs in the local and surrounding area play matches both at home and away, with teams comprising of seven ladies.
There are fun competitions, qualifiers and roll ups organised to include all levels of play as well as social events to also include the non-playing members. You can become a member for £1 and pay and play throughout the year obtaining an official handicap if desired.
The new lady captain and vice-captain are looking for more ladies to join whether new to the game or seasoned veterans and they would welcome the opportunity to meet you at the club and show you around. If interested in joining, or getting to know some of the ladies, please contact the club who will put you in contact with captain Lin Handley who will be delighted to have a chat with you.
