Warwickshire Golf

In the first of the Trophy matches which are played against Staffordshire and Worcester/Herefordshire, today's opponents were Staffordshire 1st Team with the match being played at Little Aston Golf Club.  The weather if anything, was too hot but we weren't complaining, as it was dry and very sunny.  Little Aston was in very good condition and once you had tried to avoid all of the bunkers on the course, the greens were waiting for our balls.  Surprisingly, the greens were much slower than expected or that most of us had been used to over recent weeks, and the balls had to be really hit hard to make the hole, which for most of us proved quite difficult.

Happily, Warwickshire managed to cope best and we came out winning 5 1/2 games to 2 1/2.  Great wins from the pairings of Paula Winwood & Jan Walsh, Sue Westall & Pat Hale, Angela Dawson & Jane Jones, Liz Moverley & Sheila Cardwell and Di McCormick & Caroline Lassen.

Great food and company and some fantastic golf played - what a great day.

The next match against Worcs/Hereford is on Tuesday 17th September when we shall be trying our hardest to retain the Trophy.
