2023 was a season of mixed success with a number of our usual matches against other Corps and Arms cancelled due to our opponents changing secretaries or increased costs to individuals. Our new Secretary Tony Fryer is on the job and has already secured matches against REME, RAPC and RAF Caterers. There have been many improvements to both course and the club environment and it is rightly regarded as one of the best in Hampshire. The majority of our events are played here and visitors always enjoy the experience. However for many of our members it is a long way to travel as they have dispersed from the Aldershot area over the years. To help in this the 2023 Spring Meeting was held in Northamptonshire at the Whittlebury Park Course and proved to be a great success. The 2024 Spring Meeting will be held at Greetham Valley    Resort LE15 7SN. 25 attendees have already signed up and paid deposits, but anyone else wishing to attend should contact tonymonk100@gmail.com The full Programme of Events for next year is appended below with some events yet to confirmed. We have welcomed a number of new members over the last year which is gratifying, but at the same time the pool of active members is reducing, which puts considerable pressure on the remaining players who support the majority of our events. The Society Committee is very grateful to these faithful members as we would not flourish without their support.
This is a vibrant, friendly and successful society with around sixty members. The Society is always looking to attract new members, which is open to all former ACC and serving or retired RLC chefs. The Membership Fee is £15 per annum. Society   is   in   the   fortunate   position   of   receiving   a   grant   from the Royal Logistic Corps Trust Fund which in its turn received the balance of the Army Catering Corps funds in 1993 on amalgamation. The Society plays up to five matches against other military teams and holds four major competitions during the year, as well as a four day tour and a match "The Bone of Contention" played against the RAF Caterers Golf Society, this year won by the ACC. Additionally, the ACC Officers' Club has a fixture against the Worshipful Company of Cooks of London in August each year. Eligibility for this match is membership of the ACC Officers' Club. The 2023 match was played at the South Winchester Golf Club, with a close contest resulting in a win for the "Cooks". The "Duff Cup" was presented at a dinner held at Norton Park Hotel near Winchester afterwards. The 2024 match is scheduled for Tuesday 6th August 2024 at Tidworth Garrison Golf Club. If Officers’ Club members wish to play in this match they should contact the Officers’ Club Secretary at The 2024 Society Captain is Eric Lewis and his Vice-Captain is Steve Wheeldon . If you wish to join the Society or you want information on the 2024 Suffolk Tour please contact Geoff Acott. For information on any other ACC Golfing Society subject please contact Tony Monk.
