Junior Section
Lilia Marklew – Junior Captain 2024
I have been a member of Enville for 6 years since the ages of 10. It’s an excellent club with the best of facilities and I am extremely proud to Captain the Juniors.
I am excited for the year ahead and I know I am going to be greatly supported by my Vice Captain Ewan Humphries.
I would like to thank my parents, family, and friends for all their support and encouragement over my years of playing leading up to my captaincy, and also too my coach Darren Prosser for all his time and dedication put into my golf.
I will do everything I can to continue the high level of captaincy we have had in recent years. My chosen charity this year is Acorns Children’s Hospice, a local charity that do amazing work for children with life limiting conditions who are not as lucky as us to be able to live healthy and play golf and other sports. I am committed to raising as much money as possible for them this year so that they can continue their amazing work. This year I have agreed that on June 8th I will be doing a skydive with one of our Junior Organisers Andy Tolson, to undertake this we will have to raise £1000 between us, we have a Just Giving page which we will be sharing and holding other fundraising events, if you could please donate.
