Dear society members
I hope you have enjoyed your 2011 season with the Strivers/Stormers & Rookies golf societies.
Thank you for your support throughout the year and I hope you have enjoyed the different venues and menus.
I am already planning for next year’s schedule which will be completed by early January, once finalized this will be emailed to you and put up on the website.
There have been some terrific performances and results throughout the year but most of all as well as the winning it’s about the learning, participation and enjoyment that counts!
In addition to your new found sport, a lot of you have made great friends and this is lovely to see.
I hope you are looking forward to the Christmas festivities and celebrations but more importantly to the 2012 golf season I am planning for you.
A decision has been made regarding the Rookies golf society. I am creating two categories:
Category 1, 18 holes golf, with proper golf rules and variations of formats of play, last season players advancing and new comers welcome.
Category 2, 9 holes, all new beginners welcome, including last year’s members content to stay where they are.
The Gentlemen’s golf society has also been created and golf will be played on the same schedule as Rookies.
In relation to the Strivers and Stormers societies I have decided to combine them and make the two options available:
Category 1, 18 holes golf, with proper golf rules and variations of formats of play, previous season players advancing and new comers welcome.
Category 2, 9 holes, all new beginners welcome, including last year’s members content to stay where they are.
Therefore we have 2 golf societies which are: Strivers (north side) and Rookies (south side).
Please find enclosed/attached the 2012 subscription forms.
Cheques may be made payable to Aideen Rogers GS and the Postal address is: Aideen Rogers Golf Societies, 6 Lower Carrickhill Road, Portmarnock, Co Dublin.
All new comers are very welcome.
Yours in Golf

Dear Strivers & Stormers

Welcome to the 2011 golf society, your members pack has been posted out to you, I hope you have received it, if not please inform us as soon as possible, thank you!

I hope you are looking forward to an exciting year ahead.
To all of the new members you are very welcome and I hope you enjoy the year we have planned for you.
Just a little note to help you along your way: Our 1st outing of the year was held on Sunday 20th February at Swords Golf Course; it was a great success and to those of you who did make it along thanks you for your support! Well done to all the winners and participants. Prizes will be brought along to the next outing.

If you did not make the 1st outing please do not fret!

Our next Strivers/Stormers society outing is on Sunday 13th March at Hollystown Golf Club, the closing date for your entry or cancellation is Thursday 10th March, the best way to enter is via text message to 0860341044 or email striversgolfsociety@eircom.net or stormersgolfsociety@eircom.net .

In addition both myself Aideen and Julie Forbes (The Organisers) are professional tutors of golf and are available for lessons throughout the year, including clinics on every aspect of the game.
For example: putting, chipping, pitching and indeed the long game which includes the driver, woods and iron play. You will be informed about clinics but all individual lessons and small group sessions should be booked through the Fingal Golf Centre on 8400898. 9 holes on course lessons are also available.

A word of advice to all members, please try to work on your game and your fitness levels in order to keep up pace of play! (A big tip to all players is: if your group is slow and you have lost more than a hole ahead, please call the group behind through by standing to the side and waving them on, this will help us keep up pace of play!)
A rules night has been organised to help and encourage your knowledge or golf so please make a special effort to enter for that night.  Tuesday 15th March, 8pm at the Coachman’s Inn.

Membership is still open if you know of anyone interested, and membership cards will be ready at the next outing.
Our Rookies Southside society is also open for membership, but in addition all members of either society can avail of either schedule without any extra fee involved.
The Rookies schedule will be completed in the next few weeks and emailed to all members.

Score chart passwords are available on request.

In the meantime take care of yourselves and keep swinging!
With kind regards
