Mrs Jill Edwards MBE will become the next President of the Ladies' Golf Union when the current post holder, Mrs Maureen Lockett, retires at the AGM in February 2011. Jill was Chairman of the LGU in 1998.
Jill and husband Alan are members at both Llanishen and Royal St David's. Jill joined Llanishen Golf Club at the age of 13, winning the Welsh Girls' Championship in two successive years and representing Glamorgan as a player and Captain on many occasions. In 1969 Jill was club champion concurrently at four different golf clubs!
Her outstanding contribution to golf in Wales was recognised in 2006 when she was awarded the MBE in the Queen's Birthday Honours.
We wish Jill a very successful term in office and we're sure that Alan will give her all his support. Our best wishes to both of them.
