Waltz held at Dereham Golf Club on Friday 16 May 2025

Helen Ayres • May 26, 2025

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.

The Results:

Position Prizewinners Club Points
1 Christine Joy, Irene Lindsay, Gerry Shaw & Gail Drage Wensum Valley 83
2 Kari Joyce, Sue Ryan, Kerry Williams & Lynne Jellicoe, Eaton 81 ocb
3 Ros Foster, Gerri Williams, Val Miller & Stephanie Fisher Bawburgh 81

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.

Match Captain Sue Saunders reported that this match against Cambs & Hunts Seniors was rearranged from earlier in the year when rain stopped play. The games were played in good spirit and the individual matches were really enjoyed against good opposition. There is no question that the Norfolk team feel at home at the tree-lined King's Lynn course which was in excellent condition and a real pleasure to play on for our final match of the season. Hospitality provided was first-class and a great two-course meal was enjoyed by all. NVLGS colours were presented to Bev Fowler and rather belatedly to Sally Bettinson, Kath Malvern and Anne Sibley.
