New Captains in Office Meeting 2026 at Knutsford Golf Club

Thursday 9th April was the date Manchester Captains invited new Captains from clubs around Manchester to meet at Knutsford Golf club and play the annual "New Captains in Office meeting".  The weather was cloudy with a brief period of light rain where 19 new Club Captains and 16 MDGC Executive Members' played a Stableford competition over 9 holes.

The Captain of Knutsford, John Horsley, gave an informative speech followed by the MDGC Captain, Peter Keown. The event MC was Ian Michael.

The winning team (45 points) was Tony Gregory (MDGC), Phil Welsh (Mellor), Mike Whelan (Bramhall) and Andy Roberts (Disley) who each won an Association jumper.

Second place (44 points) was David Murray (MDGC), Steve McDermot (MDGC), Peter Kenyon (Walmsley) and Reece Hobson (Denton) who won a box of balls.

There was only one ball for two, won by Tony Barnes.

Our thanks goes to Knutsford Golf Club who once again allowed Manchester Captains to hold our flagship membership event on their course.
