The
Society of Manchester & District Golf Captains is a prestigious
organisation which has been in existence since 1955 and has some
650 members drawn from over 100 clubs within a 25 miles radius
catchment area of Manchester Town Hall.
It is the objective of the Society to bring together Captains
and Past Captains of Golf Clubs for the purpose of enjoying the
competitive spirit and camaraderie of golf with like minded people
who have been administrators of the game.
The
Society arranges an extensive programme of fixtures each year
for the benefit of the members and these well attended events
provide the opportunity to play different Manchester courses through
the years. Additionally, the Society holds an Annual Dinner in
November where attendees are able to meet the Captain of the R&A,
President Elect of the EGU and representatives of the County Organisations
and other Captain Societies.
Current
and Past Captains of clubs within the catchment area are invited
and actively encouraged to become a member the Society. Enquiries
for membership should be directed to the Hon. Secretary, Membership
Chairman or any member of the Executive.
