HISTORY
The Society of Hertfordshire Golf Captains was founded on January 21 1966. It now comprises some 600 members, both past and current Captains from most of the Hertfordshire Clubs.

 

The Society has, over the last 40 years, brought together Captains and Past Captains of Golf Clubs in Hertfordshire not only to play golf but also to enjoy the friendship of others who have held the honoured position of Captain of their Golf Club.

 

A series of seven Society meetings for members are arranged each year in Hertfordshire. There are also Inter-County Matches against 12 other Captains Societies which are keenly, though cordially, played.

 

Membership is invited from Captains of clubs affiliated to the Hertfordshire Union of Golf Clubs. All enquiries for membership should be sent to the Honorary Secretary, whose email is hertscaptains@yahoo.co.uk.

 

The Annual Subscription is £15 and is payable by Standing Order on January 1.

 

Officers for 2009/10 are:

 

Early in the 1980s, the Society's committee indicated that it would like to be seen to be fostering golf in the county. So in December 1982, the Society's captain, Eric Scriven, wrote to clubs inviting them to enter two teams in a knock-out competition for members who were over 55 on March 31. The trophy was to be called The Society of Hertfordshire Captains trophy, and entry was £2 per team. It was first played for in 1983 by 28 teams, and Harpenden were the first winners. In June 1983 the committee decided it would be called the Crameri Cup in recognition of the contribution made by R.T. Crameri (Cram), who was then President of the society and who had served as honorary secretary from 1970 to 1983. In 2008, 80 teams competed for the Cup. In 2007 Brookmans Park created a record by being the first club to contest the final with their A and B teams.
