Team Fixtures 

Fixtures are arranged for members with other County Golf Captains, the Dorset ex Lady Captains, the County Juniors team and the Wessex  Regional Club Secretaries.  These are arranged by the Hon Secretary, and, at the beginning of each year, members are circulated a Fixture List and Match Request Form to nominate which fixtures they wish to play, indicating priority. A process is then used to allocate matches against other counties. As of 2023 some county competition teams are chosen by the Captain.  Sanctions will be applied as appropriate if members fail to inform the Captain in a timely manner (i.e two weeks prior to fixture) if they are unable to play or be a reserve. 

Annual Events  

In addition to the team fixtures a number of events are organised including the Spring Meeting and Presidents Day, the Four Counties match, the Colin Chataway Trophy for  Juniors, Dorset Ex Lady Captains Mixed Greensomes and the Autumn Meeting and Captains Day. Added to our calendar in celebration of our 50th Anniversary year, 2021, were a Team Event and the President's 9-hole Challenge. All members are invited to participate in these events though sometimes the numbers are limited so early applicants are given priority. 

Clothing

The wearing of Dorset Captains clothing is mandatory for the team fixtures and strongly encouraged for all events.
The Hon Clothing Organiser is able to supply items of clothing at reasonably short notice with delivery at a fixture or event. Items are badged and available in the agreed colours - red shirts (changed from yellow in anniversary year 2021) and green v-neck sweaters and slipovers. Blazer Badges are also available. All clothing may be ordered on-line or by email to clothing@dorsetgolfcaptains.org.uk
