Bruce sends his regards from his winter coaching activities in Thailand.  Bruce is a specialist full time Class A PGA Professional and during the off peak coaching season in the UK, when most pros are turning their hands to selling warm clothing, he is actively coaching and specialising in what he does best.  We are blessed that he has based his Bruce Loome School of Golf at PRGC and very much looking forward to his return in the spring.  Remember, coaching at PRGC is with real balls, on real grass, on a purpose built Academy Practise Area, with state of the art 'backward chaining' coaching.

He is starting his PRGC coaching season this May 1st with a bang and taking bookings now.

• Individual lessons from May 1st
• Group lessons starting with a group Refresher Course to get you on the right track for the season, followed up by a Specialist Shot group course - see below.

Even if you can't make these dates, please contact us if any of the courses appeal to you.  We will be organising alternative dates.

Separately Bruce is re-introducing the successful backward chaining led Smart Shot coaching from June, a project being led by Luke from a marketing perspective as part of his apprenticeship and in conjunction with work being carried out by Jack to prepare the Academy Practice Area.
Bruce developed '9 smart shots to the perfect short game' and coaching around these shots will support both existing members and the new Academy Programme being driven by the Ladies Section - more to follow...

In the meantime, please book your lessons early to maximise the fun and enjoyment you get out of this season 🙂

Wonderful collaboration with the ladies delivers a lovely and welcome addition the changing area.

Covid has changed many things in public life and indeed golf... one of them has been the reduction in the use of changing rooms and shower facilities.  Ladies Captain Liz France presented an innovative idea to convert one of their showers to a foot spa.  The ladies worked collaboratively with Sarah and came up with a cracking idea that turns both showers into a foot spa!  Nice work!!!

The PRGC ladies committee have introduced a new and very special event to the PRGC calendar.  Well thought out and targeting the 30+ lady handicappers in the region, it has attracted the support of England Golf's local union and they will be advertising it on their site.

Led by Liz France and supported by Melinda Pooley and Sue Pomeroy, this received the full support of PRGCs Committee.

It will be promoted in the first instance to teams that we enjoy friendly matches with to give them priority access and then via our social media channels.

If you know any teams or ladies who would be interested in participating in this, please forward them the contact link below:

"On Course Foundation"  Presentation.

On Tuesday 14th January, two representatives from my Captain's Charity came along after Seniors golf and both gave a short talk on where the money raised goes. Both Alastair and "G" were extremely articulate and in the case of "G" he told movingly of his own serious injury in Afghanistan.  We presented a cheque to them for £1820.00 and a big "thank you" to all those who helped raised that sum. I am supporting the same charity this year. PS. don't forget the Captain's charity bunker fine on the 9th/18th hole.

Club Pro Shop.

Luke Viney is always available to help spend your money on any golf items from basic balls and tees, up to and including new bags, polos and gillets.

The Course.

Please, please, please replace divots and repair pitch marks. Certain fairways are looking decidely the worse for wear!  Jack and his team need help at this time of year especially. So far we have only played to temporary greens on a couple of occasions, but Winter is not over by a long way yet!

Work is continuing on the new sheds and I hope to hear that the practice net area will be next on the list of projects.

Hilman Trophy. 

Our mens vice captain, Phil Sloan will be asking for your support in making up a team for this prestigious competition. He will be especially interested in hearing from low handicappers!

Mens Club Competitions.

Al Bowyer will be circulating details shortly of the five mens competitions;  Club Singles, Club Pairs, Scratch Singles, Seniors Singles and Seniors Pairs. The usual £5.00 entry fee per competition will be required BEFORE the entry draw.

I look forward to seeing you all on the course or in the Clubhouse, and a big PR GC welcome to all new members and players.

Dick Pooley, Club Captain.
