Luffenham Heath Golf Club is pleased to announce that Philly Jones nee Seckington, an alumna of Oakham School’s class of 1985, is now serving as the Ladies Captain. Her long-time friend and fellow Oakham alumna, Polly Sellicks nee Wilford, has taken on the role of Vice Captain, making this a notable moment for the club.

Philly and Polly, who graduated from Oakham nearly 40 years ago, have maintained a close friendship over the years. Their shared history brings a special connection to their leadership roles at the club.

Philly, who was a Decem (prefect) during her time at Oakham, brings her leadership experience and enthusiasm to the role of Ladies Captain. She aims to create a supportive and inclusive atmosphere for all members, encouraging participation and enjoyment of the sport.

Polly, as Vice-Captain, is equally committed to supporting the Ladies Section. Together, they aim to provide strong leadership and foster a positive environment for women in golf at Luffenham Heath.

“It’s wonderful to be leading the Ladies Section with Polly by my side, it’s a great opportunity to give back to the sport and the club,” said Philly Jones.

Luffenham Heath Golf Club is delighted to have Philly and Polly in these roles and looks forward to a successful year under their leadership.
