Club Captains' Welcome

May I welcome you to Girton Golf Club. I’m sure when you visit us you will meet some friendly faces and enjoy your day, whatever the weather. I have met so many friendly people at this golf club and look forward to welcoming you. Please do visit the Pro Shop to sign in before you play and pick up any extra kit you may need or maybe just a momento as a reminder of the day.

Do come inside and relax for a pre-game drink or treat yourself to a cooked breakfast before you play, try out the driving range and practice facilities to warm up if you have time but don’t use up all of your good shots!

For the big hitters, keep it straight. Go slightly off line slightly and you may be in trouble. Watch out for ditches, doglegs and dodgy bounces, the firm clay fairways can be cruel so my advice is try to fly it all the way to the green. Whilst the course may seem short, it is tight and tough, not many play to par. Under-read the greens at your peril. They look flat but they seldom are so putt it firmly to the back of the hole to save par, don’t trickle it in as it will slip by somehow.

Once finished playing why not retire to the bar or the outside seating area for a drink and recount your round or drown your sorrows. Someone will say hello and is bound to ask how you got on. If you see me come and chat to me. I welcome any comments, compliments preferably but also complaints with your solution. We are always looking to improve the course, clubhouse and playing experience.

I hope you enjoy your day and come back to play again, either as a new member, a guest or a group. You will be more than welcome.

Thank you for visiting us.

Mens Captain 2022

My name is Eileen Webster - the current Womens Captain, supported by a committee of volunteers who give up their time to help manage the womens section. The committee is voted in at the AGM in November.

At Girton Golf Club we have a very active and friendly Womens section and new members are made very welcome and support is tailored to suit each person’s individual needs.
There is an abundance of opportunities to play either competitive or fun golf. We run Trophy competitions, medals, stablefords, foursomes, and a variety of fun events.
We participate in several County competitions throughout the season a wonderful team spirit and display of camaraderie is very evident during these matches.
In addition to all these matches we play numerous friendlies against other clubs both home and away providing an ideal opportunity to play different courses.
We also support 9 hole competitions for those that do not wish to play 18 holes.
We are always looking for new members to join our friendly womens section, and you will be assured of a warm welcome.
