Ladies Section

Ladies Section

My name is Aine McIlvenna and it is my privilege to be Ladies’ Captain for 2020.  I would like to wish you a warm welcome to the Ladies’ Section of Haywards Heath Golf Club. 

Ladies Section

Our section comprises some 120 members and is a thriving, sociable and friendly group.  We meet every Tuesday throughout the year and participate in both competitive and fun competitions, details of which can be found in the “Competitions” section of this website.

Lessons - Individual and Group

Our Professionals also hold group lessons for the ladies throughout the year and everyone is welcome, whether a member or not.  Individual lessons are also available, as well as an excellent Putt Lab.  Practice facilities include a putting green, driving range, chipping green and an excellent practice/teaching area. The Club has excellent teaching facilities and an Academy for people just taking up the sport.  Many of our ladies have come through the Academy (including me!) and are now enjoying playing in all the competitions alongside other members. 

Club Competitions

Qualifying monthly medals are held from March to October and Stableford competitions are played throughout the year.  Regular fun competitions are organised throughout the year including Betterball, Foursomes and Greensomes, as well as Texas Scrambles and other formats.bLadies are also welcome to play in the regular weekend AC (all categories) and mixed competitions, signing up and paying for these in the Pro Shop. There are lots of opportunities for participating in Mixed Golf, both within the Club and against other clubs in the region. 

Division Competitions

The Ladies’ Section is actively involved in Division I, II, III and IV County competitions.  We also play in friendly matches and organise exchange days with other clubs across the county. We enter teams in prestigious National and County events, such as the Kathleen Rider Cup, The President’s Cup, Daily Mail Foursomes and more.

New Members

New members are always made very welcome and quickly integrate into the Club.  Finding playing partners is easy - just go online and add your name to the sign-up sheet and you can be sure someone will add their name to yours.

The Social Side

The Ladies’ Section is proud of its active social programme, which brings the members together for a wide variety of activities: Ladies’ Coffee Morning, Bridge, The Lady Captain’s Bridge Drive, several dinners during the year and a full programme of events organised by the Entertainment Committee. 

Ladies Committee

My Vice Captain is Fiona Spencer, and together with our hard working committee I am looking forward to a year of ladies golfing success and social activities.  Please get in touch if you have any queries or contact our Club Manager, Helene Issom 01444 414457. 

I trust that you will have a most enjoyable year.
