The first teacher in the Club, from before the Civil War and until 1958, was July Casañas who came from Puerta de Hierro Club in Madrid. Casañas taught with great skill and efficiency and gave the Club some if its first great players.
In 1959 was followed by Ernesto Céspedes Cordero, an unforgettable figure for those who were his students and for all of those who had the fortune to know him. Tito Céspedes was a man with a great personality and natural elegance, as well as a splendid golf teacher, sport that he taught in the easiest way and without making it any more complicated than was necessary.
Many other grand teachers have taught at the Club: Juan Miguel Sánchez Durán "El Rubio", José Luis Mangas, Andrés Jiménez, Paco Navarro, Juan Jiménez, Sebastian Bruna.. they are important figures in this little history because they knew how to teach the difficult art of golf to so many students and with infinite patience.
STAFF.
Apart from the purely sporting aspect, many other club figures dedicated to the administrative, culinary, commercial and manual work, also deserve a mention.
Francisco Luengo Canales was for 16 years an all-round employee, who helped Ernesto Céspedes to finish the second nine holes and with the planting of the fairways and greens, as well as taking charge of the Secretary's Office in the Club right up until he left for Torrequebrada in 1979.
DIRECTIVOS.
José Gálvez Ginachero, an eminent figure of Málaga society, and the first President of "Málaga Golf Club".
As we have already said, the seeds of golf in Andalucía were planted at the proposal of Málaga's "Sindicato de Inciativas" in 1925, this Syndicate being formed by Enrique Van Dulken Nagel, Luis Fernández de Villacencio y Crooke and Joaquín García de Toledo y Clemens, who later made up the first Board of Directors of the Sports Society "Málaga Golf Club". With all of this the acknowledgement of the Club's first founders, is put on record, Club that had José Gálvez Ginachero, an eminent figure of Málaga society, as its first President.
Ángel Nájera was the life and soul of the Club during many years. Promoter and founder of the same in its second phase, when it then became Club de Campo de Málaga, he was a splendid President, as well as an outstanding player and, above all, a constant instigator of convivial social and sport relationships within the Club.
