We would like to extend a massive BofA Golf Club welcome to our new Greenkeeper – Callum Gordon.

Callum is a Greenkeeper who has more than 28 years of experience under his belt and we are sure he will be a massive asset to our Club. He is a keen golfer who takes pride in his work and knows that the members are at the heart of the club.

If you see Callum around on the course – please feel free to say “Hi” and introduce yourself as he is keen to get to know some of you.

The course has been gradually improving thanks to the hard work of volunteers over the last few weeks and we hope that Callum’s appointment will allow us to continue that upward trajectory.
