Our golfing season is off and running. Despite the best efforts of the rain gods we were able to kick off our competitions in style with our Spring Meeting at Nevill Golf Club. 

Congratulations to the winners, Guy Kent and Trevor Haegar, who scored 43 points and won on countback from second placed Nigel Powell and Trevor Pigram, with Mitch Clark and Sean Nolan coming in third. Countback was all that separated the first three places.  

Next up is the Spring Mixed at Highwoods Golf Club. 

The Sussex Golf Captains, founded in 1964, are a non-profit making organisation for Past and Present Club Captains of Sussex Golf Clubs.

We organise an extensive program of fixtures and matches for our members to enjoy and promote friendship to all.  By doing so, we look to support Sussex Golf Clubs and help to grow the greatest game ever invented.

Last year we returned over £60,000 directly to Sussex Golf Clubs for hosting our events. This doesn't include the incidentals; drinks, buggy hire, ball sweeps and pro's shop spending.  

We are proud to maintain the respect and etiquette the great game of golf richly deserves.
