2nd Team Matches v Leics & Lincs

As ever, the second team county matches come round in a hurry after County Week.
On Sunday 15th July we played Leicestershire at Rothley Park Golf Club. A scorcher of a day, with all the foursomes going to the 18th hole and all the singles matches finishing at the 17th. Lou Beaumont, making her debut picked up a point and a half, however home advantage meant a 7-2 win to Leicestershire. Thanks to the team that day of Emma Anderson, Jacey Peacock, Louise Wilding, Lou Beaumont, Audrey MacMillian and Carol Houghton.

Two days later The Nottinghamshire played host for the match against Lincolnshire. Thankfully it was a slightly cooler day. We even needed our new summer sweaters, sponsored by Acorn Windows.
With Lincolnshire in the lead in the clubhouse, we needed two wins in the last two matches in the singles to secure the win. The Ruddington pair of Wendy Kerry and Loraine Howd pulled it out the bag, and we secured the win 5-4. A great team effort, with everyone winning a point for the team. Thanks to all the players that day, Carol Houghton, Louise Wilding, Sarah Riddell, Emma Anderson, Wendy Kerry and Loraine Howd.
Onward to the final two matches away to Lincolnshire at Ashby Decoy on 25th July and the final home match at Radcliffe on 30th July v Leicestershire.
