The club captain. Generally, it’s a role for someone who’s been at the club for many years. Often, if they’re not retired and on a decent pension, they’re your CEO types. Deep pockets, basically, which you need when you’re voted in to be the face of the club for a whole year.
This is not always the case, though. Why should it be this way? Why not have a younger face in the position, someone eager and full of energy to represent the club and take it forward? This is what's happened at The Burstead Golf Club in Billericay.
