Captain's Welcome - Jeff Froggatt

As a new season dawns on the Peninsula Golf Club Inc. I would like to take this opportunity to welcome back our returning members and to also extend a hearty welcome to any new and future members to our wonderful club.

New members are always welcomed with open arms and all members are encouraged to invite friends along to see what we are all about as a club and in turn become members themselves.

This is my second year as Club Captain so hopefully I have learned from my first year and can continue to improve in the position and live up the high standards of the previous captains.

Thanks also go out to the entire committee for the endless hours they all put in so that we can all get out there and enjoy a round or two of golf every week.

To the new members of the committee, I have no doubt that those committee members putting in another stint will help in any way to make your jobs as easy as possible.

On behalf of the Peninsula Golf Club Inc. I would like to extend our thanks to Nigel Williams and all of his staff from the Pro Shop and the Swanbank Cafe for their support. Without their co-operation the club would not be able to run our golf days and functions as smoothly as we do. I’m sure we will all return the service by utilising the Pro Shop and bar regularly.

I welcome any member who has any ideas or suggestions to have a chat to me about it. All suggestions will be given merit by the committee. Please remember that any course management issues should be brought to the committee and not the Pro Shop.

There are plenty of opportunities in the fixtures for sponsors days so if anyone is interested in sponsoring a day please approach any committee member and I am certain we will be able to accommodate you. You choose the format and we will do it.

This year we will have platters after every Wednesday Cup and Monthly Mug day as well as the final round of the Club Championships and some other days to be advised.

I have scheduled most of the novelty games on long weekends as this is when our numbers are down and most ordinary weekends will be games that can be handicapped.

Thank you

Jeff Froggatt

Captain, Peninsula Golf Club inc.
