HARD LUCK AND CONGRATULATIONS!

As many of you will know, our Managing Secretary Terry Walker was nominated by club members in the “Golf Club Manager of The Year” competition organised by the Golf Club Managers Association to recognise managers who have made outstanding contributions to their golf clubs over the past 12 to 18 months.  Terry reached the final shortlist of six and at the recent GCMA AGM was awarded the runner up position.  Peter Johns of Eaton Golf Club in Norfolk took the honours.

In a quote to this website, Terry said " Whilst I'm a little disappointed not to have won, I do recognise that this is a wonderful achievement so early in my career and I feel privileged to have been able to take part in this process. The support from colleagues, members and the Management Committee at Lingdale has been overwhelming".

On behalf of us all I want to congratulate Terry for an amazing achievement for someone who has been a golf club Managing Secretary for less than two years.

Jim Sharpe

Chairman, Management Committee

At the recent Annual General Meeting of the Leicestershire & Rutland Golf Union, Keith Tripp, current member and Past Captain of Lingdale Golf Club was voted in as President Elect. This means that for the next two years, he will perform those duties with a view to taking over as President of the Union in two years time.

This is a massive honour for Keith and this Golf Club and we're sure that all Lingdale members join us in congratulating him on his appointment.

At the same meeting, Graham Fox, Past Capatin and Past President of Lingdale, was voted in as a Vice President. This follows on from Graham's retirement as County Fixtures Secretary.

A double celebration for the Golf Club - well done to both and best wishes in your new roles.

At the Leicestershire & Rutland Golf Union Annual Dinner, held at the Hinckley Golf Club on 18th February 2011, Lingdale member, Past Captain and Past President Graham Fox, was presented with the Donald Cameron Memorial Trophy for services to the Union.

This is a fitting tribute, not only in that it has been received for services during the Union's Centenary Year, but also as Graham is now nearing the end of a 20 year spell of being involved with the Union.

Well done Graham!

The Disabled Golf Society aims is to try and get disabled players playing golf, either back playing again or for the first time.

They have events scheduled all over the country for 2011 (see website for details - www.disabledgolfsociety.com.

In order to attract people to the game of golf, the above are running a 'Couples' initiative. Please see their poster for details.

Olympic Champion Dr David Hemery CBE recently paid a visit to Lingdale Golf Club.

He was here as part of his involvement with 21st Century Legacy, a charity that he formed to support young people to enable them to fulfil their dreams and ambitions.  The ‘Be the Best you can Be’ programme is designed to inspire young people to achieve their potential.  It has already been successfully piloted and has been seen to raise aspirations, build confidence and help them take greater personal responsibility.

His gold medal came in the 400m during the 1968 Olympic Games in Mexico and his feat also broke the world record at that time. His performance helped him win the 1968 BBC Sports Personailty of the Year. He followed this up with a bronze medal at the 1972 Games in Munich.
