Match Reports from our Captain Clare Seddon

Our first match on March 29^th was held at Formby ladies against the Lancashire Women’s team.

It was an extremely windy and wet day and although everyone was more than willing to play, the course almost closed itself and play was abandoned after 9 holes.

The result was an honourable half, with some very good golf played under the conditions. We played a game such that if either side went 2 down, they received a shot until they were only one down after which they returned to playing off scratch. If a team subsequently went 2 down, shots were given as above.

Everyone seemed to enjoy getting together, even if the weather was shocking. Thanks to Bet Burns and Linda Dorning for coming along to join us.

Lancashire Seniors played their annual Captains team against, Presidents team, match this Sunday at Formby Ladies Golf Club

16 of the lowest handicap players in the county enjoyed a beautifully sunny day of golf at this fabulous links layout. The course was stunning and there was a great deal of praise for the quality of the greens and fairways. This match gives the selectors the chance to look at established players form, as well as providing an opportunity for selectors to look at potential new team members, as they consider our squad for this seasons Richardson Trophy matches.

There was some great early season golf played and we have a wonderful number of potential squad members, all showing the same positivity and love for our county. Let’s hope todays sun that shone on us will shine on us in every way for the rest of the season.

The match finished 4:4, an honourable halved match.
