This month warskgolf is just as full of features as it is during the Golf season – which in the case of 2004 was very successful for both the Warwickshire Union and the Warwickshire County Ladies Association. Reviews of some of the best performances during the year will be posted during the Christmas to New Year week but in the run up to the festive season, there are 25 new features for you to read and coming next week an exclusive interview with Peter McEvoy.

This is one of five books we have specially reviewed for Christmas 2004 from Human Kinetics. For info on how to win our review copy, look out for the Competitions feature though quite simply, for any golfer over 50 – and really for anyone who wants to play more consistent, better golf – this is a must which can’t wait. It’s an absolutely brilliant book and anyone would enjoy this as a Christmas present … a present anytime!

This editorial is not about a pretty model using a buggy. Its about something much more serious, two areas of real concern for golf clubs which members and management might not be fully aware of, if at all. That lack of awareness could cost a club financially. The first part of this feature is about new certification to be able to serve alcohol, and the costs of obtaining this form of licensing which could include ‘consulting’ fees, as is the trait in this climate of regualtion. The second looks at making sure that a club keeps its ability to cater for disabled people, whatever the weather.

Regular players in the Warwickshire Pros Championship, now in its 16th year, include Paul Broadhurst and Steve Webster. This year, those two gentlemen are away at the 25th birthday celebrations of an equipment manufacturer.
