HAYLING Ladies had a lovely sunny day for the Ladies President Competition on June 5. Barbara Osbourne has served the club for three years as lady president, and this was the last one.
She will be a hard act to follow. The winners were Jean Leggett, Pam Davies and Maureen Mills, second were Andrea Burton, Sue Humphrey and Caroline Hague and third Daphne Benford, Sally White and Jennifer Berry. A good day.
Our Gold, Silver and Br
onze Championship was played over two rounds on May 29. The morning was lovely, but the afternoon round was absolutely awful, with a cloudburst ruining several games.
However, most of them struggled on, to their credit, and arrived completely soaked. Moira Hoath is the new Club Champion, Rosie Mist won the silver and Claire Kane the Bronze. The single round was won by Erica Everest. Penny Wilkins was second.
