Footwear Trade Charity Golf Tournaments
At the end of April the annual golf match between the Leeds Shoe &
Leather Trades Sports Association and the Leicester County Shoe & Allied Trades Golf Society took place in Worksop. Each was represented by teams of eight players with all scores counting in a vital but friendly atmosphere as always. Leeds just edged it but it was a close call, much to everyone’s enjoyment.
This competition has been going on for more years than any of the
players can remember, which is not too surprising when you realise that the Leeds Association was founded in 1919 and the Leicester Society was formed in 1922. Apart from the all powerful desire to play golf, the charitable fund raising associated with both groups is the key to their activities lasting so long and well. The Shoe & Leather trades charities and others have long been supported and hopefully will be for many years to come.
The invitation from both Leeds and Leicester to recruit more golfers
from the shoe & leather trades continues as ever. This ensures the future for members of the trade to have fun playing golf with like minded trade associates and to further the charity fund raising for those less fortunate than ourselves.
