Notts
girls secure excellent half against Leicestershire
 In
a contrast to the Mapperley friendly match, the first league match was
played in glorious sunshine at Belton Park, Lincs.
Despite being 7 lower handicap players missing, the team knuckled down
and secured a halved result, This was an excellent result as Notts were far
less experienced regarding handicaps and had to play off scratch.
Notts were represented in the scratch match by Emily Cheshire, Jodie
Peacock, Rachel Boulton, Emily Lyle, Elizabeth Barks and Amy Oxbury. Wins
were secured by Emily C, Jodie & Elizabeth
Well done to everyone who played!
Second team match Vs Leics
At the same time as the scratch match, the second team also played
Leicestershire. This is a new venture this year and teams consist of 3
players. Each match is off handicap
Notts were represented by Laura Morris, Emily Jane Golder and Keeley
Sweeney. Well done girls winning 2-1. This is the first time all 3 have
represented Notts |

Friendly
match against Mapperley Ladies
 A huge thank you to Mapperley Ladies for hosting what has become a most
enjoyable annual fixture
It is really important that this match offers the higher handicap girls
to play in a matchplay format with ladies and more experienced
girls.
It was a bitterly cold day but all the girls enjoyed themselves and
really appreciated the encouragement from the ladies.
Well done to Lianna, Annabel & Jessica Bailey, Jodie Peacock, Emily
Lyle, Sarah Riddell, Amy Oxbury & Beth Barks |

 On Saturday 6th February, 19 girls, their families, County
Officials and golf professionals met at Sherwood Forest Golf Club to
celebrate the achievements of the junior girls in 2009.
The evening began with a super meal followed by an address
from Roy Case. Over 30 trophies and certificates were presented to girls
from the Junior squad, the Birdie and Mini-Birdie groups
I was astounded at how many trophies the girls had won in
County, inter-county and club competitions, and I hope I did you all
justice as Roy presented the awards. Well done to you all, I was very
proud to be able to read out all of your achievements and to share in your
successes
A big thank you to Sherwood for hosting the evening and to
Roy for presenting the awards. Lets hope that 2010 is as successful!
