Captain’s Welcome

Message from our Club Captain 2018

As Club Captain for the 2018 season, may I extend a warm welcome to the New Mills Golf Club website and to the Club itself. I hope you will find these pages informative and helpful. New Mills Golf Club has a long history. It was founded in 1907 in the heart of the beautiful Peak District. With extensive views out over the Cheshire plain in one direction and the impressive vista of Kinder Scout and the start of the Pennine way in the other, the Club boasts some of the most impressive views of any Golf Club in the country. We are pleased to welcome golfers of all abilities, be they established or competition players, social or recreational enthusiasts to beginners wanting to learn the game. We offer an 18-hole course that will delight and challenge your skills, no matter what your level of play.

After your enjoyment on the course, a relaxing club bar and lounge awaits you and your friends, and our new chef Craig and clubhouse manager Jodie will be happy to serve you from a wide selection of snacks and light meals. Our club facilities are free to members and can be hired out to non-members for social occasions. Although we insist on a formal dress code whilst on the course, the dress code within the clubhouse is much more relaxed.

Our resident PGA professional, Sam Shaw, brings a new level of interest and professionalism to the coaching staff and offers coaching sessions and tutorials on a one to one or group basis, for families, corporate parties or for juniors. Coaching programmes can be devised for every level of golfing ability and we welcome junior members from the earliest age. To enhance our all weather coaching facilities, the club has a SkyTrak digital system installed within the clubhouse. The fully stocked pro shop offers a wide range of clothing and equipment and can cater for all your golfing needs.

I look forward to meeting you in 2018.

Message from Lady Captain 2018

My name is Alison Rudder and I have the honour of being the 2018 Lady Captain at New Mills Golf Club. Our club has a heritage spanning over a hundred years and during that time we have been involved in an almost continuous programme of improvements. The club offers panoramic views and stunning scenery along with some challenging holes.

We play a number of competitions, which include medals, stablefords and fun events throughout the year as well as inter-club friendly matches against clubs in Cheshire and Derbyshire. Our ladies day is Wednesday with an alternative day on Sunday for working ladies. We offer both 18 and 9 hole competitions plus we have an informal roll up on Monday morning. Highlights of our calendar include Ladies Captain Day in June, the Ladies Open Am Am in July and a Turkey Trot in October.

Besides these there are also a wide range of social events in our clubhouse which provides good food for both golfers and locals alike.

Working alongside my Vice Captain, Jane Howard, I will continue to offer a warm welcome to new members and visitors. If you are thinking of joining our club I am happy to arrange to play a round with you or have one of our committee members to do so.

Let’s hope that this year we will be blessed with good weather which will give us all the opportunity to enjoy some good golf. I would like to wish all golfers a very enjoyable year!

Alison Rudder

Lady Captain
