A larger field entered the Championships this year, a factor for this was moving the competition to the end of the season from mid-summer, this meant we had a lot more entries particularly in Division 1. Last year there were only seven entries in this category but this year twenty-two entered, so this made for a much better competition. A slightly lower entry from Division 2 of fourteen from nineteen still made for a solid competition. The weather was good and the Dunston members were very welcoming and supported us by providing a starter, thank you Club Captain and Hilary who ran the raffle for me. Congratulations to the winners who were as follows, in Division 1 Scratch and defending her title, winning the Championship Cup with a fine score of 81 was Sue Clarke from Kings Lynn, runner up winning the Joy Boult Salver, was Anne Sibley from Wensum Valley with 87. Best Nett, winning the Pallister Cup for Division 1 was also Sue Clarke from Kings Lynn with a score of 73, so a double winner. The Over 65 Gwen Watts Salver was won by Anne Sibley with a score of 76ocb. In Division 2 winning the stableford competition and the Curtis Cup, was Pip Martin from Dunston Hall with a score of 35, runner up, winning the Committee Salver, was Avril Carey from Eaton with 33 points and third was Julie Procter from Kings Lynn. The Over 65 Bessie Turnbull Salver was won by Pip Martin making her a double winner also. Well done everyone who took part and enjoyed the day.

104 ladies from 16 clubs played the lovely Kings Lynn course on a challenging day with rain showers and whirling wind conditions which made it a good test of golf. The day clashed with the Ladies County Foursomes but it was still oversubscribed and late entries were turned away as we could only accommodate 26 teams with a two tee start. The club made us very welcome and the membership provided help with the raIle and starters. Huge thanks go to the Kings Lynn Lady Captain, Elaine Calvert who was incredibly supportive and their Secretary Iain who dealt with all the cards and put them through their system to sort out handicaps and winners. There were loads of compliments about the course and everyone appeared to enjoy the day. Congratulations go to Sue Clarke, Rosie Russell, Jane Reavell and Soon Letchford who came in first and won the Judith MacKinnon Salver. The Society is very grateful to everyone who generously bought rafle tickets which raised £420 for the Norfolk & Norwich Jenny Lind Appeal. Sue Saunders The Results:
