Message from the President
For Cumbria, 2009 was a special year with our County Team winning the Northern Counties Daily Telegraph Salver for only the second time in the history of the event. Not only that but Cumbria qualified at Seascale for the English County Mens Final at Chipping Sodbury, where the team finished 3rd. Workington also won the Champion Club and John Longcake and Seb Crookall-Nixon retained the Logan and McGregor Trophies respectively. That is a good base to approach 2010! We have a new Captain, Carlisle's Martin Hand, who has taken over the reins from Cliff Heath, who has been Captain since 2006. As most of the 2009 squad is still available for selection, I hope we can look forward to another successful year, though I appreciate we are now up there to be shot at ! In 2010, we will be celebrating our centenary, as on 10th June 1910 our Union was formed at a meeting at the George Hotel Penrith. We now have 33 Clubs in our Union and they include some of the most challenging yet beautifully landscaped golf courses in the country. Visitors to our county can look forward to a friendly reception and if they play our courses they will certainly get value for money wherever they go. I wish all our members a good year for golf and after the floods in November 2009 and the snows of January and February , let us hope for a good warm summer, when it will be a pleasure to follow in the footsteps of our golfing ancestors. Finally, I hope we will see a good turn-out at our Centenary Dinner at Shap Wells on November 26th. Tom Stout President 2010. |
