John Williams to Become England Golf President in 2017

John Williams has accepted the nomination to become President Elect of England Golf for 2016 with a view to becoming President in 2017.“To read the list of past Presidents is a humbling experience,” he said. “I am deeply honoured and delighted at this invitation and I’ll do my very best to match the standards set by my predecessors in representing and promoting England Golf, also in supporting Marian Rae, our President in 2016.

“These were aspects of my role as Chairman of Championships which I so much enjoyed.  I’ll be able to express my own and England Golf’s appreciation to all of those who devote so much time, effort and expertise to the amateur game we love,” he said.

John has been a referee for the English Golf Union (EGU) and England Golf for the last 10 years and is a past Chairman of the Championship Committee.  He’s looking forward to renewing the contact and relationships with counties and clubs which host England Golf championships.
