  • New Steward at Kington GC

    We are delighted to announce Ian Carpenter will be the new steward at the golf club from Monday 27th March 2023.

    Our thanks go to Agi, our existing Steward, who has decided to leave the club. She provided great service to members and visitors alike over the past 3 years. The COVID pandemic was a challeging time but the service continued to be first class and the food and hospitality offered has helped in moving the club forward. We wish her well for the future.

    Ian is well known around the county golf scene, with a track record for providing great food and excellent value for money. He will be offering a new menu and range of visitor/society packages as well as his range of "Carpy specials".

The outgoing 2022 Captains, Wendy Priday, Les Baker and Steve Hallam presented a cheque to Nicole Beebee from the Air Ambulance Charity, with the total raised reaching just over £9000 including Gift Aid and funds raised by a sponsored parachute jump by senior member Terry Weight.

    The new Captains - Martin Sommers (Seniors), Josh Alderton (Juniors), Sue Purslow (Ladies), and Gareth Jones (Mens) then struck the ceremonial tee shots from the 1st tee to commence their year in office.
