MENS' SECTION
2023 CLUB CAPTAIN - MR STEPHEN SAUNDERS
Stephen started playing golf in his twenties at the Forest of Arden. He has been a Hawkstone Park member for over twenty years after moving to Shropshire for work reasons. His two sons are both former members,
but nowadays they play their golf further afield (London & Australia). Highly competitive games always take place whenever they meet up.
As a member Stephen mixes Sunday morning competition golf with more socially based midweek games.He also plays in inter club games and the Clywd Border Alliance. The opportunity to play on two high qualitycourses and Hawkstone’s pre booking systems mean that Stephen’s diary is rarely short of golfing dates.
An Engineer by profession, Stephen spent the first half of his career running engineering/manufacturing companies within large corporate groups. More recently he has delivered consultancy services through his own business.
Stephens feels that the coming year will be both challenging and enjoyable. He looks forward to contributing to the ongoing success of the Club.

COMPETITIONS
The Mens Section has a comprehensive, competitive and friendly playing membership at Hawkstone. Weekly competitions are held on Sundays and have an alternate day of Saturday to also play. Competitions are held throughout the year so there is always a competition to enter and hopefully win! Trophy competitions are played on a Sunday, with an alternate day on a Friday; this gives golfers the opportunity to play on a day which is convenient to them. Our Honours Board Trophies are presented at the Club's Annual Prize Presentation evening at the end of November.
Captains Day is usually held in July and is certainly one of the most popular days in our playing calendar which includes 18 holes of golf and a dinner and prize presentation in the evening. There are three team Opens throughout the year giving members the opportunity to invite golfing friends from other clubs.
