Peter Rogers President of the LUGC 2009/2010
2009 was a wonderful Golfing year for Lincolnshire. First Team, Second Team and Under 18's won their Leagues in convincing fashion and Adam Keogh, Adam Wainwright, James Burnett and Patrick Kelly played for England and were Members of their National Coaching Groups. League Golf and the Scratch knockout Competitions (Bramley and ElshamTrophies) produced some high quality Golf throughout the season and ended in thrilling Finals.
Equally impressive in a different way were the responses of our Clubs to the Economic Recession and the difficulties it brought - the way in which many Clubs have stepped up their promotion and recruitment bodes well. I hope that the Lincolnshire Golf Partnership will help in the promotion of Golf as a Sport for Everyone in Lincolnshire and as a boost to the County's recruitment of new blood into our great game.
My good wishes go out to all Clubs and Members for another successful season - see if you can introduce a friend to your Club this year.
