Result: Loss 3-1

It was a perfect, sunny day to play golf as Doreen Dolby, Julie Smith, Ann Gardner, Lia Donath, Tracy Wright, Louise Williams, Molly Hood and Jayne Maxwell went to Mitcham to play the away leg of the annual friendly.

Well done to Julie and Doreen who won their match but unfortunately, after hard fought matches, the other three games lost. It was a most enjoyable day, however, and we still have the opportunity to retain the trophy by winning our return match in August.

Thank you to everyone who played.

Result: Draw 2 – 2
Overall result: Win 5½ – 2½

On Sat 11th August a team of 8 Ladies played in the Away Leg of the Mitcham Friendly.

The team consisted of –

  Di Jackett & Norma Lynch
  Molly Hood & Doreen Dolby
  Maureen Slade & Louise Williams
  Sheena Harrington & Lia Donath

It was an eventful day’s golf played in good spirits.

Maureen and Louise and Sheena and Lia played well as pairings and won their matches. Well done to them and thanks to all the ladies who took part.

Richmond Park have managed to hold onto the “Rich Mitch” trophy for another year – now 4 years in a row!

Result: Win 3½ – ½

On a rare hot and sultry day this year, the home leg of the Mitcham Match was played on 9th June on the Duke’s course. The format was 4 ball better ball match play with 3/4 the difference of the lowest handicap in each 4 ball (there is probably a better way of saying this!).

The win to Richmond Park was convincing 3½ to ½.

The team consisted of –

  Cheryl Woodhouse & Norma Lynch
  Maureen Slade & Aileen McKenzie
  Sonia Inniss & Angela Flynn
  Sheena Harrington & Lia Donath

Richmond Park have held the trophy for the last three years and will only require a halved match to do so again on the return leg on 11th August.
