Hopwood Hickory Shaft Match & Lunch
Sunday 15th April 2012

On Sunday 15th April the Captain has arranged a special match to be played at Manchester Golf Club to commemorate 100 years of golf at Hopwood.

On this day the British Golf Collectors Society will visit Hopwood and play a match using traditional hickory shafted golf clubs. There will be a limited number of places available for members to play in this special event and therefore the Hopwood 2012 committee has decided that places will be decided by a ballot of players who have expressed an interest.

This occasion will coincide with the launch of a fascinating display of club memorabilia that has been collated during the last twelve months by Tony Jepson and Kevin Hardman.

If you would like to play in this special event please place your name on the list on either the gents or ladies noticeboard. Entry fee is £15 per person which will include a two course meal after the event and a discussion of topical memorabilia after the match.

 

Hopwood 2012 Memorabilia Launch & Lunch
Sunday 15th April 2012

During the last 12 months Kevin Hardman and Tony Jepson have been collating information and memorabilia to commemorate Manchester Golf Club in the last 100 years at its current location of Hopwood.

On Sunday 15th April 2012 we will be launching this fascinating display in the clubhouse and holding a Luncheon Party to celebrate this event.

Lunch will be accompanied by a pianist and after lunch Kevin and Tony will be on hand to answer any questions that members and their guests might have about the last 100 years of Hopwood.

Did you know that an ex-employee of the Manchester Golf Club was also a US Open Champion? To find out more about this and many more interesting facts about the club please book your tickets for the Launch & Lunch Party today.

Tickets are priced at £12 for Adults and £6 for Children under 12 for a two course lunch and can be purchased using your card from the bar.

Do you have any memorabilia that you would like to be included in the exhibition?

Tony & Kevin are especially looking for old score cards, memories of special events at Manchester Golf Club or memories of high achievers who were members of Manchester Golf Club. If you have anything to submit please deliver to Golf Reception and details will be passed onto Tony and Kevin.
