Friendly Match v Ashridge Men - 29th March 2008 at Ashridge
GC. |
|
On a day which started warm and sunny and finished wet and windy, the first team
struggled against the Ashridge men’s scratch team. |
|
The morning matches were all very close with 3 of them being settled on the 18th
which is a par 4 for the men and a par 5 for ladies. Congratulations to Steph
McEvoy and Lucy Glyn on their battling half. |
|
After a wonderful lunch the weather had turned chilly with occasional squally
showers and, apart from Alison and Harriet’s win against the captain of the day
Glenn Harrington and Chris Hewitt, we lost the remaining matches. Well done
again to Steph and Lucy for taking theirs down the 18th - always a difficult
hole to have to win. |
|
It was very pleasing to see Tina Jeary playing after her injury and illness
problems. She had not been able to play even 18 holes for several months so to
survive 36 was very encouraging and, hopefully, a good omen for the future. |

| After
a very windy night, the gales had thankfully subsided by
lunchtime. The sun came out to welcome us although a
stiff breeze still swirled around the course making club
selection very difficult. |
| The
team were all determined to reverse last year’s defeat
against a strong Surrey side; and with 5 wins, 2 halves
and only one lost match that was exactly what they did -
with 2 members of the junior team playing, it bodes well
for the future. |
