INTER COUNTY MATCH RESULTS 2023
SLPC v Gloucs
at Mendip Spring Golf Club
19th September, 2023
The result: SLPC 3.5, Gloucs 4.5
The weather turned out to be kinder than we had expected though rather windy. The course was in lovely condition and the matches were played in great spirit. The results was not known until the last match came in. The dining room was buzzing with chatter and laughter and a good meal was enjoyed by all.
Many thanks to all the reserves who played for us on the day.
Apologies for the quality of the photo! But it shows a happy and colourful (reds and blues) group of ladies post-match.

SLPC v Somerset Men's Past Captains
at Worlebury Golf Club
31st August, 2023
The result: SLPC 3, Somerset Men's Past Captains 5
The match against the Somerset Past Men’s Captains on Thursday August 31st was, as usual, played in a very competitive manner but also with great fun and laughter. The weather was not as kind as we all hoped it would be but it did not stop the match. Unfortunately, this year the ladies were beaten by 5 games to 3 but this score does not reflect how close the game was. It all depended on the last match which went to the 18th hole and was down to the putts.
The match was followed by a lovely meal when the noise level at each table was an indication of how we all enjoyed our day and the men were kindly generous with the drinks we all received!
Thank you to all the ladies who played particularly those ladies who stepped in to ensure we had a full team.

SLPC v Wiltshire
at The Mendip Golf Club
3rd August, 2023
The result: SLPC 6.5, Wiltshire 1.5
The Somerset Lady Past Captains traveled to Mendip Golf Club extremely apprehensive having seen the weather forecast earlier in the week and the weather gods did not disappoint by dumping rain heavy enough for the proshop to call the ladies in and where a 40 minute suspension was needed for the skies to clear and the greens to drain.... The course was great, albeit a little damp in places but someone was smiling on us in that the bunkers were all GUR and therefore approach shots to the green could be wide and a drop into the bunker was of no consequence..
The food was gorgeous with Spaghetti Carbonara or Salads on offer with A Tomato & Pesto Pasta for the ladies preferring the vegetarian option.
Somerset were the victors on the day with a result of 6.5 to 1.5 .

SLPC v Devon
at Teign Valley Golf Club
6th July 2023
The result: Devon 5 1/2, SLPC 2 1/2
The Somerset lady past captains traveled down to Teign Valley golf club in Devon on Thursday 6th July. It was a lovely day, pleasant and sunny but not too hot. The course was described by some ladies as ‘quirky’ but we all had a good time. The meal served afterwards was excellent with a choice of chicken, fish pie or vegetarian. Food was served as we came in which meant that we were able to get on the road at a sensible time.
Unfortunately we lost to Devon 2.5 to 5.5.

at St Mellons Golf Club
2nd June 2023
The result: Gwent 5, SLPC 3
The course was really enjoyable. The food was really good with a hint of tumeric in both Fish & Chips and the Lasagne. I should stress 'Gourmet' as they liked that!

SLPC v Cornwall
at Trethorne Golf Club
17th April 2023
The result: Cornwall 4 1/2, SLPC 2 1/2
The first SLPC’s match was played in fine weather Trethorne Golf Club. The course was challenging with many hills to climb and putting on rather bumpy greens. Although Somerset lost 41/2 to 21/2 it was a great team effort., Trethorne provided excellent service and high quality food to make our day special. It was wonderful to hear laughter and much chatter over our meal. Thanks to everyone who played.
