Welcome to Devon Golf Captains Homepage.
The website is designed to provide information and news for all Captains, both playing and non-playing. The Club, over the last eighty seven years, has provided a focus for all Devon Captains and Past Captains of affiliated Devon Golf Clubs. This unique group has provided opportunities for golf and friendships to be enjoyed with their peers, who have also experienced the honour and privilege of Captaincy within Devon. Founded in 1937 Devon Captains are the oldest County Association, preceded only by Liverpool Captains 1908 and London Captains 1911, a proud heritage!
Within the group those who wish to play, in one or more of the matches with other counties, will, after submitting their applications, be invited to play by the Captain. These matches are now some sixteen in number. Additionally Captain’s Day and President’s Day, Captain vs. Vice Captain are “in-house” on a first come first served basis.

PRESIDENT LEW EASTER
Gentlemen
“Lewis Easter, President of Devon Golf Captains” – these few words are something that I never dreamed of seeing or hearing when I had my first game of golf at mid Kent golf coursein Gravesend 1969. To see them in print under my photograph makes me so proud, it is difficult to put into words my most inner feelings. Thank you to all of you in Devon Golf Captains – thank you.!
Dartmouth golf club is where I served my apprenticeship and in 1995 I was invited to be captain. Although a young club, it is a fine course at which I always feel proud to play and represent.
Devon Golf Captains of course cannot exist without tireless work behind-the-scenes, I would like to thank all Vice Presidents who make up the Executive, especially our retiring President Malcolm Jordain. Malcolm, as one of my closest friends is a constant source of reference and reassurance; He has had a very busy and sometimes trying year as President – a big thank you to Malcolm.
In conclusion gentlemen , during my year as President I will endeavour to build on the outgoing president’s good work, uphold the fine name of Devon Golf Captains and hope to provide good golf, good humour and another successful year in the history of Devon Golf Captains.
Thank you,
Lew
