Your new 1st team Captain - Gareth Jenkins
Playing golf for Warwickshire from Junior up to Senior level, has been a large and hugely enjoyable part of my golfing life to date. To now become 1st team captain is a great honor for me. I?m following an outstanding Captain in Graham Hargreaves. Graham noticed me when I was a young county player, and was first to pick me for the senior team and the County 6?s Qualifying at Moseley.

I thoroughly enjoyed playing under Graham both then and last year. His enthusiasm, knowledge and commitment to both the County and the 1st team is unsurpassed. He's left the squads in great shape and one can only capitalize on this for the coming year. Thanks.

We've lost two notable players to the pro ranks this season: Rob Steele and Paul Randle, both good friends and will be severely missed from the team.

I personally would like to wish Rob and Paul all the success for the future.

As usual we have a number of friendly matches coming up. The first against Northampton on 25th March at Olton, this is a great opportunity for me to play a large number of players and rotate the system so I can have a look at as many players as possible.

We have a great squad of players, and last seasons successes and close calls will only have increased the players desire to achieve even greater success in 2007.

I'm hugely looking forward to a successful and enjoyable season.
