The ladies started their defence of the Sivewright League North title with a difficult away match at Houghton-le-Spring and were unfortunately defeated 4-1 in what were very blustery conditions.  We'll hope for a better result (and weather!) in the return match at Ryton in three weeks' time.

Congratulations to Michael Muldoon and Peter McRoberts Jnr on their hard fought win in the 2nd round of the Daily Mail Foursomes at Tyneside - Well done finishing 1up.

The Ladies Medal One was played in conjunction with the first qualifying round of the Jubilee Vase on Sunday April 22nd, the results are:

1st Maureen Rook, 95-21=74

2nd Maggie Myers, 97-22=75

3rd Sarah Bendelow, 83-6=77

The three qualifiers for the Jubilee Vase final are Maureen Rook, Maggie Myers and Gill Beauchamp (reserve Bev Wears)

Congratulations to Bev Wears and Linda Etherington-Tait who both came second in their respective categories in the Durham County Ladies Spring Meeting held at Sharpley GC on 18th April.  Also playing on the day were Maggie Myers, Maureen Rook and Ena Robson.  Well done ladies!
