March 2012

Welcome to the new 2012 season

Welcome to the first Associate of 2012. I think it will be our best yet for patrons and members of The PGA in England (South), because we have laid on more top golf at more top courses than ever before.

As you will see below the main Virgin Atlantic Order of Merit events are back, each with its own pro-am. We have a new Order of Merit event, The PGA Woosnam-Faldo Challenge, played at the courses they each designed, Dale Hill and Chart Hills. Click here for the full 2012 schedule.

The Seve Ballesteros Foundation Pro-Am now fronts up the PGA Southern Professional Championship which moves to Foxhills, and the JDRF Stoke Park Charity Pro-Am gives everyone another opportunity to see why its unique scoring format is so popular.

So with all our usual events and some new pro-ams at Richmond, Chart Hills and Camberley Heath, there are more reasons than ever to enjoy your involvement with The PGA in England (South).

Follow that Fire Engine
James Morrow (Cobtree Manor) has done a quite a bit more than most of us could even dream of doing when it comes to raising money for charity. Following the death from lung cancer of the father of one of his best mates, Steve Moore, Morrow and Moore had the madcap idea of driving a fire engine - a 16 years old Mercedes 4x4 called Martha - around the world to raise money for cancer charities. read more
