Yelverton Golf Club

Welcome to the Pounders section of the Yelverton Golf Club web site

Pounders have been turning up regularly, whatever the weather, every Tuesday and Thursday morning since the late 80s. From humble beginnings it has evolved into a well organised group who wish to play golf in a competitive but friendly environment. In 2009 our average attendance on a Tuesday was around 36 with an average 24 members turning out on a Thursday. Statistically over 50 members of Yelverton Golf Club played in excess of 2000 rounds followed by a drink and something to eat in the club house afterwards. For 2010 we already have a list of 56 members ranging in age from those in their 30's upwards and even boast a couple who still play a competitive round of golf who are in their 80's.

The group recognise the importance of supporting Yelverton Golf Club and have done this in a variety of ways including organising many fund raising events over the years.

The accompanying pages of this web site clearly demonstrate all that is good about our section. Friendly but competitive, well organised but with the emphasis on fun the bond within this group strengthens each year.

We do everything possible to ensure that both existing and new members of Yelverton Golf Club receive a warm and welcome reception if they wish to join us on either a Tuesday or a Thursday.

If you wish to discuss any aspect of playing with Pounders please do not hesitate to contact either myself or this years Vice Captain, Mick Draper, by phone or email, our details are on the Contact page.
