KEITH HACKETT JOINS CHURCH FORMER Premier League Referee Keith Hackett has become a regular at NCEL Premier Division side Penistone Church over the past few years – and now he has been made President of the club.
WITH difficult weather for the past two weekends there has been little competitive golf to note at Stocksbridge and District Golf Club. A small field of nine took part in the fifth round of the Winter Cup on December 8. S. Marsh triumphed with a creditable 36 points and second place was taken by N. Elliott with 28 points. On December 15, with the weather even more unfavourable, E. Smith won the Pro’s Prize with 34 points and J. Moss was second with 28 points. The club president, chairman and board of directors wish to thank all the club staff and members for making Stocksbridge one of the friendliest courses to play in Yorkshire. On behalf of the Golf Club, we wish all Look Local readers a merry Christmas and a peaceful New Year.
He replaces Gordon Beever who has stepped down since taking charge for the entire time that Church have been in the NCEL league.
For those looking for a new challenge, why not come up to the club and find out more about the opportunities available at the club.
Hackett has officiated at a number of key matches down the years, including World Cup games and the 1982 FA Cup Final.
For further information contact the club secretary on 0114 2882003, or Roger Broad, the club professional, on 0114 2882779.
