The Committee

A soon to be retired consultant engineer. I have spent 50 years in manufacturing engineering and been lucky enough to travel the world through my work. My love of sport in my younger years was always football but as the years crept up on me I decided I needed a vocation a little less strenuous. So in the early 1990's found golf through friends who were members of MGC. Apart from golf I play badminton twice a week and for my sins I am an avid West Ham United supporter.
My aim with the aid of my dedicated committee is to make March Golf Club a super friendly place to play golf.

A long standing member of March Golf Club and Captain of 3 consecutive years I have lived in March for 25 years and own Clovelly House a residential home for the elderly in our home town, prior to that I have managed a pub in London and had a career in sales.

I’m happy to introduce myself to you as Club Captain for 2021. This is my 8th year of playing golf, all of them as a member at March Golf Club. Throughout my time at this Club everyone has been very friendly and welcoming and gone out of their way to include me and make me feel part of the Club. March Golf Club is not only somewhere to play golf, we also have a very active social calendar with a variety events taking place throughout the year.

We have a very committed team of volunteers who give up their valuable time to help with the smooth running of the Club. They do this because they enjoy it and want to be part of a common goal – to make MGC the best 9 hole course in the county and to make everyone’s golfing experience the best it can be. All the staff are totally committed to the Club and are on hand to help with any queries

Born in South Yorkshire, I moved to March in 1970 when I married Peter. We have 3 daughters and 7 grandchildren. I am a retired teacher having taught in the March area for over 25 years, taking up golf on my retirement . For the past 3 years I have been Ladies Handicap Secretary and I hope to find my work on the Committee and as Lady Captain equally rewarding and will endeavour to do my best for the Club.

Retired in 2002 after over forty years as a Quantity Surveyor/Estimator in the Construction industry, most of it spent working for one national contractor. Married with two grown up daughters.

I moved into the area approximately ten years ago, and joined March Golf Club in 2015. I have been working in management in Adult Social Care since relocating following 25 years in financial management with many of the leading banks in the UK. In my younger days I concentrated on Judo, football, cricket and racquet sports before an unexpected heart attack in 2006 forced an early retirement from these activities. Active member of the Seniors Section at MGC and member of the committee for the past 18 months

Having played hockey tennis and badminton to a competitive standard over the years in 2014 I took up golf after being persuaded by some very good friends who were already members of MGC. I started out with a handicap of 34 and had one aim to get this down to single figures which I achieved in 2019.

I trained as a PE teacher in Liverpool and taught at schools in Sheffield before moving to Peterborough. I lectured in Sport and Exercise science for many years at Peterborough Regional College before retirement. I have a son and two grandchildren. Widowed in 2000, I met John in 2003 and we married in The Gambia in 2004. I started my golf at Orton Meadows where I had a year as Captain, and became a member at March after I met John. We now live in Coates

Now retired from a career in medical sales working for Ansell, Gary has been playing golf for over 37 years. Married to Alison, with two children and four grandchildren. Playing off a handicap of 14 and recently wining the nett prize at our Club Championship. Gary joins the committee as a member of the Greens sub committee and former Senior's Captain.

I joined March Golf Club in 1994 and during that time I have been captain twice and sat on numerous committees ,Management, House and Bar and Social. I have played in club competitions and friendly matches but March Golf Club is not all about playing golf, this is a great place socially and also the number of friends you make over the years

I have been a member at MGC since 2017, in that time I have the pleasure to meet some new friends, and I would like to think my golf has also improved. I decided to join the committee so that I could both give back to the golf club, and hopefully give the voice of the intermediate members. I put myself onto the greens sub committee, and also the house and bar sub committee, because I believe that my background in engineering would be most beneficial in those areas.
