World head golf celebrity list
hrr F dm o c d T no by Edward Lee
THREE of England’s Rugby World Cup winners will be back in the Ribble Valley later in the sum mer - swapping rugby boots for golf shoes to raise money for charity. Stonyhurst old boys Will Green
wood, Iain Balshaw and Kyran Bracken head a list of celebrities who have m “ e a date at Stony hurst Park Golf Club in early July. And they are aiming to raise
thousands for charity. Although the golf course has
existed for well over a century, the club playing there is celebrating 25 years this year. And to mark that anniversary,
the founder members are organis ing the Silver Jubilee Charity Golf Classic.
T h e a im o f thp f ls v ic in rnioa o The aim of the day is to raise a
considerable amount of money for the college’s own charities as well as the Wooden Spoon Society - the official charity of British rugby. The involvement of the Wooden
Spoonists is crucial to the success of the event as they have nominated the day as one of their regional qualifiers for a national golf cham pionship.
And the winners at Stonyhurst
on Friday, July 9th, will go through to the all-expenses-paid national final to be held at The Belfry later in the year, with the chance of a trip to Florida as the main prize. A number of sporting celebrities
have pledged their support, includ ing former England rugby captain Bill Beaumont, former Lancashire cricketer and now county president Jack Simmonds, and former Eng-
land football captain Trevor Cherry. Others in action on the Stony
innlUn]] m .-n
hurst fairways that day are set to include broadcaster Martin Hen- field, Houghton Weaver Norman Prince and a group of golfing MPs. The golf side of the day is a vir
tual sell-out and will be followed by a champagne reception, banquet and evening’s entertainment. The whole day has already
at tracted sponsorship from Thwaites Brewery and Persimmon Homes (North West), but a variety of other sponsorship deals are avail able, as are tables at the evening banquet.
Further details on the golf, ban
quet and sponsorship are available by phone from club president Arthur Wilkinson (01254 822351) or by e-mail from chairman Richard Greenwood (
