Welcome to Welton Manor Seniors Golf Club.
Captain's Welcome:
May I start by welcoming all fellow golfers to Welton Manor Golf Club Seniors Section.
After four years as a member of the club/section and Vice-Captain through 2024 I passionately believe that it ticks all boxes required for senior’s golf.
I was introduced to a group of likeminded individuals that not only made me welcome, but also opened social relationships that I believe form the foundations of any good group, therefore I am delighted to take on the position of Captain through the 2025 season.
My personal belief is that fresh air, exercise, and social interaction is what makes the game of golf worthwhile, whatever your handicap Welton Manor Seniors Section offers it all.
Here at Welton the owner (Dave Otterwell) and the ground staff work hard to keep the course open throughout the year, catastrophic weather being the only factor that may prevent this goal. This enables weekly competitions to take place on a Wednesday throughout the year which form bonds between both old and new senior members.
There are also a number of home and away matches against other clubs to which all senior members are invited irrespective of handicap (as long as you are a member of WMSS and have a handicap).
As previously mentioned, the social aspect of golf is an important part of the senior’s game, I believe WMSS offer this so come along and try us.

Chairman's Welcome:
Hello and welcome to our dedicated website. My name is Alan Pretty and I’m the Chairman of the Seniors Section here at Welton Manor Golf Club. I’m one of 70 plus Senior Members who enjoy playing golf with a group of likeminded seniors. If you’re over 55 years of age and want to enjoy playing your golf with a friendly group of golfers come and join us. You’ll be given a warm welcome.
Like most golf clubs, the “Seniors Section” is a sub section of Welton Manor Golf Club and we work closely with the Clubs Owner (David Ottewell) and the Golf Clubs Management Team organising competitions and friendly matches throughout the year.
The Section has its competition days on a Wednesday morning and has a full program of friendly matches which are played at home and away throughout the summer. Our Captain this year is Colin Bilboa and as well as being head of the Section organises and hosts our friendly matches.
We have a Seniors Committee that meets monthly, and they oversee and guide the work undertaken by the Competition and Handicap Secretary's. They also manage the Sections finances through the Seniors Treasurer and work closely with the Main Clubs Management Team..
This website is administered by the Seniors Section and as a Committee we are always pleased to receive your feedback and welcome your views and comments on the running of the Section.
Please feel free to contact me on 07810 431912 if you wish to know more about playing Seniors Golf at Welton Manor Golf Club.

Owners Welcome:
Hi, my name is Dave Ottewell, I am from a farming background and Welton Manor Golf Club was a successful diversification project undertaken 30 years ago.
The Seniors Section has been an integral part in the success of the club, following our inclusive ethos policy, a fantastic asset to WMGC and it has been a pleasure working closely with so many past Captains and Seniors members over the years, many of whom are still active in the Seniors Section today.
You can always rely on the Seniors to play their casual rounds of golf, Wednesday competitions or friendly matches throughout the year, whether it is in the worst winter conditions or in the height of a summer heatwave. It is always enjoyable to have some banter with the Senior members both before and after their rounds of golf. Please do not hesitate to join the Seniors Section if you are 55 or over, where you are sure to be given a friendly welcome and enjoy the opportunity to meet and socialise with members and play your golf in an affable and relaxed environment whatever your handicap is.
The Welton Manor Management team are looking forward to working closely with 2025 Seniors Captain Colin Bilboa and the Seniors Committee to provide the Seniors members with a variety of well organised competitions and friendly matches throughout the year.
If you would like any information regarding the Golf Club, The Falconer bar and function rooms, or have any enquiries please contact one of the management team, Hayley, Dave or Jamie.
