Seniors Section
The Seniors section of the club is a very friendly and very active group of members who welcome all male club members over the age of 55 to join them to take part in both fun and competitive types of golf. Within the section handicaps vary from single figures to 40, with an average in the late teens to low twenties. Players of all abilities mix freely and are encouraged to do so as we believe golf should be a social game, whilst at the same time having a healthy respect for it to be played in a competitive spirit and to the Rules of Golf.
Membership of the seniors’ section costs just £5 annually and this is payable in line with the annual AGM in September or just before the start of the season. Senior section membership entitles you to put your name forward to play in our various league fixtures teams or in our friendlies and to enter several domestic competitions. These matches provide a wonderful opportunity to visit and play other courses across the county for just the cost of a lunch. As you can see from the above, being involved in the seniors can be a rewarding and pleasurable experience.
We have a space on the notice board in the snooker room of the clubhouse where entry sheets for our league fixtures and domestic competitions are posted so it should be a regular port of call for all senior section members. At various times during the season, we also send out emails which alert our membership to upcoming events and when required information and updates of all the planned events plus results. We also have a general WhatsApp group where none league related information, such as away days, enquiries about members etc. can be posted.
If you are not yet a seniors section member but would like to become one and get involved or you require any further information then please send an email to competitions@penworthamgc.co.uk and they will make contact with you. With your permission we can then add your email address and phone number to our mailing list and WhatsApp groups so you can receive regular updates on all the Senior’s events and matches.
