Seniors

  (Our iconic statue)

Do you like playing golf in a relaxed yet competitive manner?

Are you over 55?

Then get in touch with Deanwood Seniors via the Clubhouse on 01635 48772.

The Seniors ( Evergreens ) meet every Friday at 08.30 hrs.

The Captain - Raymond Bilton - is always willing to chat and can be contacted through the members section of the website or via the Pro shop.

If Friday is not convenient then there is an offshoot group (The Deans) meeting on Monday (11 am) and Wednesday ( 8 am). Their contacts are Gordon Neale and Richard Jones all contactable through the website or the Pro shop.

No matter what time of year you are guaranteed a warm welcome here!

....... make sure you know the right handicap for each tee and that you are aware of all the local rules .

Celebrating Robert Butler.

Next Friday 30th January, the bar will be closed from 1pm to host a celebration of the life of our recently departed friend Robert Butler.

If you knew Robert and would like to attend, please do come along — just give us a quick nod beforehand so we can ensure catering is adequate. Mona has asked that this be an informal celebration, full of fond memories rather than a sombre occasion.

Deanwood officially has a new centenarian!

As of last Friday, the incredible Tom Darling reached the grand old age of 100.

Tom joined Deanwood back in 2002 as a sprightly 76-year-old and has been a familiar and much-loved face ever since. A regular with the Seniors and the Deans, and a loyal supporter of countless club events,

Did I?

Play Golf or just spoil another walk?

As you walk off the course next time ask yourself the following questions:

Did I enjoy myself?

Have I signed my card?

Did I replace my divots and repair my pitch marks?

You should answer YES to them all!
