Anouk Woodhouse

“I have played golf for about 10 years, but have only been playing in competitions for about 6 years. I started at Etchinghill GC where I had fun junior lessons and played with my dad. I am currently at Sene Valley GC and I was the junior captain there last year. Even though I don’t want a career in golf, I enjoy the sport very much, and hope that I will continue playing it for the rest of my life.”

We arrange matches against the junior sections (boys and girls) of various Kent Clubs.
