Competitions Secretary Jill Bullimore reported that Friday May 16th saw the first competition for High Handicap Ladies from the Society. It was great to see 9 teams from ten clubs taking part in a team of four Waltz. This format was really liked by the ladies that took part as there was less pressure on having to score. Dereham was a great venue and were good hosts. Although the weather had turned colder, the teams took on the challenge. The winners were Christine Joy, Irene Lindsay, Gerry Shaw and Gail Drage from Wensum Valley with 83 points. In second place, on count back, were Kari Joyce, Sue Ryan, Kerry Williams and Lynne Jellicoe from Eaton with 81 points, just nudging out the team of Ros Foster, Gerri Williams, Val Miller and Stephanie Fisher from Bawburgh. Feedback from the ladies was that they would like to take part in this type of competition again next year.

Proceeds of the raffles held at the competitions in 2024 totalled £1,407.70. A cheque for this amount has been sent to the Norfolk & Norwich Hospitals Charity for the Jenny Lind Appeal. Our thanks go to Jill Bullimore, Angie Allsopp and Sue for running the raffles and to all those who bought tickets.

The Spring Four Ball Betterball Stableford was held at Gorleston Golf Club on 14th April 2025. Competitions Secretary Jill Bullimore reported that 92 members from 14 clubs took part. The weather was fine and dry. However, the wind did get stronger as the day progressed making this a factor to wrestle with. Gorleston Golf Club were superb hosts; everyone made every effort to make our day enjoyable. There were particularly satisfied faces after a lovely fish and chip meal. Congratulations to the winners, Sue Olds and Sue Fage from Wensum Valley, with a creditable 46 points.

Angie Allsopp reported that 88 ladies from 14 clubs played in this event. It was a very good day, the weather was extremely kind and we were looked after very well by all the staff at Bawburgh. Everyone seemed to enjoy the day and quite a few stayed for the presentation. Unfortunately, we did not have a starter so everyone saw themselves off, which was not a problem.
