The sun shone brightly with a very gentle breeze as the teams waited to tee off. The course was challenging but the views across the bay were quite spectacular, and the weather was on our side. Although we lost 6.5 -0.5 some of the matches were quite close. It was definitely an advantage to have played the course before, as several of the Cornwall players had. Judging by the convivial atmosphere afterwards during the meal most ladies had enjoyed the day.
SOMERSET V CORNWALL SHIELD MATCH
MONDAY 23 MAY 2022
WORLEBURY GOLF CLUB
Our first match of the season took place at Worlebury GC and the first against Cornwall for 2 years. Although a bit chilly it did not rain which was a bonus and all those who took part were relieved to be able to get back to normal!!
Unfortunately for Somerset the Cornish team were not only in fine spirit but also up for the challenge and Somerset were beaten 6/1, however, several of the games went to the last hole.
Many thanks to Carole Paterson, SCSLGA President for acting as starter and for Sue Bamping, SCSLGA County Vice Captain for stepping in at the last moment to play for Somerset.
Thank you to all the staff at Worlebury who were very helpful and provided a splendid meal for us all. It made my first match of the season such a pleasure and I can't wait for the next one.
