2nd Team Away Match v Leicestershire
The last 2nd team match of the season was held at Lingdale GC on Sunday, 18th August, 2013.
The morning saw wins in the foursomes for the pairings of Rachel Boulton and Emily Lyle and Carol Houghton and Sue Reynolds. Good performances from Diana Payne and Leanne Martin who fought back from 5 down to be all square with two play unfortunately though they lost the last two holes to finish 2 down.
So going into the afternoon singles Notts. were 2-1 up.
Rachel Boulton leading the team secured a half point in an exceptionally good quality and good scoring game. Good wins followed in the singles for Sue Reynolds (especially as Sue was making her 2nd team debut), Carol Houghton and Emily Lyle. Diana and Leanne just losing their matches.
The final result being an excellent five and a half to three and half win for Notts.
My thanks go to all players that have played for the 2nd team this season, all have played well and been a credit to the County and we managed to finish 2nd overall.
Finally, my thanks also to Kathryn Horberry, Assistant Vice Captain, for her help and support throughout.
