We are looking forward to another action packed year and would invite any member of 55 or older to join us.

We play a few internal competitions each year

Spring Pre-season - played in 4 ball teams.

The Mike Wainwright and George Anderton Trophies – individual medals – one with a twist.

The Fred Carr Trophy - individual stableford.

Christmas comp and dinner - individual stableford.

We also play 4BBB matches on a home and away basis against 14 clubs:

          Stone           Prestbury     Ingestre Park         Buxton High Peak

          Newcastle    Cavendish   Trentham               Trentham Park

          Congleton   Brocton       Wolstanton            Market Drayton

          Matlock       Astbury

All our matches are followed by a meal and a couple of drinks.  Where matches are concerned the normal format is that the home players each buy a round of drinks for your opponents of the day, so if you play the home and away games you will only buy one round of drinks. 

We do prefer players to play both the home and away games against the same club.  The cost of the meal at the away matches is usually less than a single green fee to play that course and, in some cases, considerably less.

Sheets where members can enter their names for consideration, for any of the matches, are normally posted 3 to 4 weeks in advance on the Seniors Notice Board and the selected team sheet will be posted at least one week in advance.  Should you be listed as a reserve for any game you will be given priority for the next match.

If you would wish to join us, you would be more than welcome.  We often come across members who feel that their golf is not good enough to play in a match - you would be wrong.  If you have a handicap, you are good enough and, remember, you will be playing with a partner.

The social side to all seniors’ events is considered to be as important as the game itself, if not more so.  We pride ourselves as being as friendly a group of players as you could wish to meet.

 Please come and join us.

The 2023 season so far has been a bit of a mixed bag.

Our first home game against Trentham Park had to be cancelled as the course was closed due to flooding. It has been rearranged for Monday 11 September.

Our first away game was at Stone and unfortunately ended in defeat. This was followed by home wins against Prestbury and Ingestre Park but a loss to Buxton High Peak.

We continue to have plenty of interest from our members wanting to play the matches – on most occasions having reserves. Unless called upon to play these reserves are then guaranteed to play in the next match.

Players need to be over 55 and to have paid their £10 Section membership fee.

Please keep an eye on our Seniors Section notice board for booking forms and team sheets for upcoming matches. Add your names to those you would like to play.

For any more information about the section and upcoming fixtures please contact me, our Captain Mr Trevor Smedley or any other member.

Happy golfing,

Dave Toft - Leek GC Seniors Secretary
