The season is progressing very quickly. Our Shield teams have had a great season. The First team came second in the First Division, our highest placing for 9 years. Our second team won the third division, that is promotion two years in a row!! The Third team are sitting joint second and we eagerly await the final results from other clubs to confirm our exact position.

The Club Championship was won by Judith Moore. Jude was challenged by Joanne Jacobs in an exciting match. The heavens absolutely opened in the afternoon with the match ending on a flooded 9th green (hole 27). The Bronze Championship was won by Natalie Heath for the second year in a row. Barbara Franklin made Nat work hard for her victory.

We have held two Opens, our first weekend Open was a huge success with many ladies appreciating the opportunity to play an Open at the City at a weekend. Our last Open is in September.

20 of our Past Captains met for lunch after competing for the Past Captain’s Cup. We were also joined by several non-playing Past Captains for lunch. The Vice Captain selection meeting took place after. Congratulations to Sharon White who has accepted the honour to be our next Vice Captain. This will be confirmed at the Club AGM in October.

The annual national Women and Girls Golf week culminated in a Women on Par 9 hole competition. Also, each day from 1-7th August ,we posted a short piece on all 3 social media platforms following the topics suggested by EG (careers, volunteers, role models, beginners, competition, health and well-being). Hopefully this will continue to raise the profile of women in golf.

The knockout finals day is on 18th September. This year will be very special as we have one of our elder ladies competing. Lots of luck Audrey.
