for the 2012 season.

Name: Ryan Shuttleworth
Age: 16
Golf Club: Workington
Handicap: 2
School: Workington 6th Form
Favourite Golfers: Tiger Woods and Ricky Fowler


Firstly, I would like to say what an honour it is to be Junior Captain 2012, leading such a talented Junior Section.  I am really looking forward to the beginning of the 2012 season as I know great golf is on the way. I would like to welcome the new team members and wish them every success.
As Junior Captain I will try my best to set a high standard both on and off the course and will hopefully lead my team to victory and show them that the more you put in, the better the results.  I am sure the lads will make me proud by their commitment, support and effort.
I would like to thank John, Henry and all the parents for their support both with the organising and taxis!
Good luck everyone and remember, the real winners are the ones that never give up!


Regards
Ryan

We are in the process of arranging three junior squad get togethers before the next squad coaching session at Carus Green on March 4th. Two at least will be in February and all squad members will be invited. The first will be at Eden Golf Club and the second at Penrith. The final one will probably be in the south. Please make sure you have been following the practice and fitness advice you were given at the first coaching session. It will be a tough season for all and you will need to be prepared. If you gave me your email address I will send you details of the get togethers when they are confirmed. The get together will consist of 16 holes Stableford and will earn merit points.

2012 - A young team but a good one!

Sadly, we have said farewell to the older players who have served the county well over the last few years and now must rebuild. We wish them well as they move on to their chosen careers and, if they are able to, I hope they will come to the home matches . They will always be welcome and I am sure the team will appreciate their support.

We have some outstanding young talent in Ryan Shuttleworth, Adam Chapman, Will Marklew, Ross Coates, Josh Carr and Chris Kendall who will form the backbone of the squad next year but there are several other players who will be able to stake a claim for a place in the Northern Federation League team by the time the season begins. Other young players have been invited onto the squad to make up the County U16 team who will play against Lancashire, Durham and Northumberland. Andrew Wolstencroft, Ben Johnstone, Luke Walker and Jake Woof have already had experience playing for the county and we look forward to seeing them develop their talents during the season.Some of older players who have one more year left as juniors, such as Dan Bescoby and Ryan Crayston will also be part of what we like to call Team Cumbria. The first get together will be at Carus Green Golf Club on Sunday December 18th from 10am to 3pm. The boys and their parents will be introduced to the County Coaches, Andrew Pickering and Steve Harrison, then will be briefed on expectations for the 2012 season and will receive coaching on practice routines and skills which they will be expected to work on during the winter before the beginning of regular team sessions leading up to the start of the season's programme. As always, we will be on the lookout for other committed young golfers to add to the squad when the Junior Masters Tour begins in the Spring.
