MNR Scratch Matches - Round 1
The girls had their first two scratch league matches at Birstall Golf club in Leicestershire in the May half-term week. The new format of the Midlands North League this year means that the girls play 2 matches in one day against two different opponents, on this occasion it was Staffordshire and Shropshire.
The day was challenging on the weather front with wind and rain showers most of the day, but the girls kept the smiles on their faces underneath their brollies.
In the morning the team won 4 1/2 - 1 1/2 against Shropshire. In the afternoon playing Staffordshire the matches were very close and the result came down to the last two putts in the last match, which unfortunately went one up to Staffordshire and they won the match 4-2.
