Drive in for New Captain Mr Andrew Spink
Ruthin-Pwllglas Golf Club Captain for 2022 is Andrew Spink, who is also the club’s Chair of Greens.
Andrew started playing golf at the age of 13, when he became a junior member at his local club in Lancashire. After gaining his Diploma in Amenity Horticulture, and spending some time living and working in France,
Andrew returned to the UK and was involved in managing local authority Parks Departments, as well as other environmental services. This included the management of municipal golf courses and fine turf such as bowling greens, cricket and croquet surfaces
Andrew said that he was very proud to have been asked to be Captain of this wonderful golf club, and was looking forward to representing the club.
He went on to add that there is still ‘work outstanding’ in his role as Chair of Greens, and wishes to continue the course improvements for the benefit of all members over the next 12 months or so.
How far will the Captain drive it?
187 yards! And all through the air, no run on the ball at all because the fairway is so soft after all the wet weather. Congratulations, Brenda Roberts, you’ve won a bottle of Champagne
