Captains Messages

Captain's Welcome - November 2023

Welcome to my first message as Yorkshire Captain.

It doesn’t seem so long ago that Lynn Wallis, former Captain and Competitions Secretary, encouraged me to stand as Inter Club Assistant, never thinking that one day I would be asked to become the Captain. But here we are.

We are really pleased to be welcoming some new members onto the Executive this year; Carla Pawson as Junior Organiser, Sue Rushbrook, Inter Club Secretary and Annette Jackson, East Area Representative. Also coming back onto the committee, Heather Muir, Treasurer and Jane Schofield, West Area Representative. We are always looking at moving the YLCGA forward and I am sure the new members will bring fresh ideas and energy to the group.

We are also delighted to welcome Marian Rae as the President. I know Marian will bring a wealth of knowledge and enthusiasm to the organisation.

During my year as Vice-Captain I was really pleased to meet so many of you. Not only at competitions but also at some of the Area Representative’s get-togethers. I’m hoping this year to meet even more of you, so please do come and speak to me at events. It’s good to be able to discuss things and share ideas and I’m always ready to have a chat!!

Finally, Lesly and I are looking forward to an exciting and successful year and hopefully with your help we can achieve it.

With Best Wishes
Marlene
