New era for Leeds golf club as first ever female director is elected
A Leeds golf club has teed off into a new era after electing the first female director in its 117-year history.
Members of Howley Hall Golf Club, in Morley, voted for Rebecca O’Grady to take on the role of club director for the next two years at the annual general meeting.
The former ladies’ captain, 37, has been a member since she was just a 16-year-old at the club, which has a championship golf course and is the home of the Yorkshire PGA Open.
