Welcome to a busy start to 2024. I will do my best to keep you updated, and I am going to take this opportunity to remind you to visit the Hastings GC website to find any additional information. We also keep a 3 month “Whats Up for the month”, in the women’s locker room on the notice board. The other option is to just ask! Vicki Sutcliffe or myself, and we have a number of friendly ladies listed below who am sure to be able to help you. So, if you are keen to take the next step being a little more involved in club events this year, or if you are keen to play with or meet new people we can help!
