County Seeks Sponsorship
Winning the right to represent the Midland Group of counties at the English County Finals is a tremendous honour, the first time we have been there since 1966.
Preparing and taking a team of seven, plus caddies, and Captain, for two days of practice and three days of competition at Hunstanton, takes a lot of organisation and we need as much support as possible from Worcestershire Clubs and players.
The budget is being finalised and will run to several thousand pounds.
The County is very pleased to have already received the offers of support listed below.
As a Special Offer, County Cards, valid until 28th February 2011, will be on offer until the end of September for only £10
Any person or organisation wishing to join the list, or to donate anonymously, please contact the County Secretary on 01386 750657. Opportunities exist for player clothing to carry our supporters logo.

GolfMark
North Worcestershire Golf Club has been awarded GolfMark. This takes the number of clubs in the County to have achieved the award to twenty one. 57% of clubs in the county are now accredited.
This is the best performance by any county in England and is a clear demonstration of the way in which Worcestershire Golf Clubs have responded to the need to raise the standard of the management of children at golf clubs to the highest level.
A benefit for Golf Mark accredited clubs is an annual award to promote junior recruitment and coaching. In 2010 the 21 GolfMark Clubs will be able to claim £12,600, a not insignificant sum to benefit Junior golf in our region.
They join Bewdley Pines, Bromsgrove, Cocks Moors Woods, Droitwich, Evesham, Fulford Heath, Gaudet Luce, Gay Hill, Hagley, Halesowen, Kings Norton, Little Lakes, Moseley, Redditch, Stourbridge, The Abbey Hotel & Golf Club, The Vale, The Worcestershire, Wharton Park Golf Clubs and Worcester Golf & Country Club.
GolfMark is a stringent test to ensure clubs have implemented a child care regime for their juniors, incorporating current best practice
