NAPGC has become a large, well-respected organisation.
Dutton, who lives at Willaston, South Wirral, is pleased he leaves the NAPGC in good shape.
His role at NAPGC followed his service at Brackenwood, Wirral.
The need for ``cohesion'' between public and private golf courses, identified as a good idea at the time of the formation of NAPGC, would seem to remain as important now as ever.
The Wirral Grammar School A-level student followed that up by winning the McGregor under-16 trophy and the
NAPGC English junior championship, as well as playing a key role for the victorious England under-18s team in the home international tournament at Leeds.
