Get into Golf Coaching Sessions

To introduce women, girls, and juniors (16+) to Golf

New Mills Golf Club is offering two introductory courses, funded through Derbyshire Golf Union, to help introduce some new groups of people to golf.

The introductory session will have some fun activities including chipping and putting demonstrations, followed by 5 weekly coaching sessions for a group of 5 or 6 people to go through aspects of the game in more detail.

CAPTAIN’S Thank You WEEKEND

Saturday 4th & Sunday 5th August 2012

By way of thanking the Club for giving me the honour of being Captain this year, I get to host a weekend competition for Gents and Ladies, whereby all categories of members can come together and play in a competition. Tee sheets are on the notice boards in the clubhouse. Known for being one of the most welcoming Clubs in the area, the Saturday evening gives all categories of members the chance to partake in some food and drink with each other. 

By bringing their family and friends, it's a great chance for members to show off the clubhouse and panoramic views to those left at home whilst we test ourselves on the course. For all those young at heart, a disco will allow us to demonstrate we can swing our hips for others and not just to hit that damn ball! The Saturday evening is all about enjoying the clubhouse facilities with our wider family and friends of members, so please do invite all those you like to spend time with.

Derek Horsey Charity Competition - 2012

Report by Tom James

Sadly Phil Smallman and Tom James were knocked out in of the second round of this competition on Monday 18th June. Playing away against Rochdale Golf club the pair knew it was always going to be tough playing on a course neither of them had played before.

The Rochdale pairing of Dean Brackenbury, playing off 9 and Nigel Donnelly playing off 23 meant that Phil and Tom received 5 and 6 shots resepctively but Nigel took full advantage of his 11 shots none more so than on the par 3, SI 11 where despite Phil parring hole a par from Nigel meant a half just when Phil thought he had won the hole!
