Another Seniors Win! Unbeaten this year!!

Good Afternoon All,

For personal reasons Doug Taylor, our Seniors Captain, had to withdraw from today’s away match against Weston Turville and therefore as his stand in, I thought I would let you know the result.

I am very pleased to advise that the team won yet another game - this time 4 - 2. (Last year we got thrashed 5 - 1!).

Many thanks and congratulations to the whole team of David Orford (who stepped in at the very last minute), Mark Richards, Pete Smith, Dave Mackenzie, Sunil Soni, Andy Wagerfield, Mark Stinchcombe, David Neighbour, Dick Pooley, Steve Williams and Mike Smith, for yet another superb performance.

I am not sure you are aware but currently this year your Seniors are having a great season and are unbeaten in their friendly matches.

And remember, if you are 55 or over, and would like to represent your club in the Seniors matches and you have not yet advised Doug Taylor of your interest, then please contact him (and me) and your name will be added to the list of potential players.

Thanks for your support,

Best wishes

Mens Update July 2022

Ladies Committee Update – July 2022

Clubhouse Update from Sarah Tietjen 23.06.22

Dear members,

we have been so pleased with the feedback on all the new activities within the clubhouse

New Bean to Cup - Coffee Machine

The feedback on the coffee machine has been fantastic and thank you all so much for all of the positive comments during the trial. We have now committed to purchase and the new machine will be delivered shortly, configured to our cup sizes and coffee preferences.

New Outside Furniture

Once again, this has been a real hit and we thank you all so much for all the positive comments. We are continuing to improve the outside areas - watch this space.

New Function Space - Orangery

For those who haven't seen the new flooring and decor within the 'Orangery' (was the old buffet area) - it is proving to be real hit!

New Beers

Please say hello to some new beer options we are trialling, including a new alcohol free range (Guinness, Speckled Hen and Doombar) and the amazing new pale ale - 'Ice-breaker'.

New Lithium Ion Buggy

Earlier in the summer we committed to purchasing a new Lithium Ion buggy to compliment our existing squad. It is lighter, incredibly reliable and environmentally friendly. Once again, great feedback from members on our push to be more environmentally friendly.

New Staff - Please give a warm PRGC welcome to Maddie and Luke

Delighted to introduce Maddie and Luke to the clubhouse team - please make a point of saying hi and introducing yourselves. They are already making a great contribution already!
