Sally Bingham - Welfare Officer
Club - Kettering GC
Handicap - 15
About 

I first picked up a golf club and ‘caught the bug’ in 2011, shortly after retiring from a career in Education. As a golfing novice, I was welcomed into Kettering G. C. and soon became an active member of the Ladies’ Committee.  Additionally, having had experience and qualifications in Safeguarding matters, I was asked to become the Club Welfare Officer. I continue in this role to date. In 2017, I was honoured to become the Ladies’ Captain and have recently become the Cecil Leitch Team Captain. I have benefitted enormously throughout my sporting life, from people giving their time and effort and feel it is important to ‘give back’ as well as to receive.
