End of Season Get Together – Hinckley GC – Sunday 10^th November 24

Hinckley Golf club hosted the end of season get together, this was an opportunity for members of the 1^st team, 2^nd team and the junior teams to meet up and play together in an Am Am format.

The Weather was excellent for this time of year and the course was too. To mark it being remembrance Sunday the players all followed a minute silence at 11am.

There was a great atmosphere as our new County President Peggy Remington started the groups on the first tee, which continued throughout the round. There were some super Am Am team combinations but the winners with 77 points were: Lisa Porter (Lingdale) Victoria Mayfield (Rothley) Jane Burley (Market Harborough) and Eesha Patel (The Leicestershire)

Thank you to everyone who played.

L&RLCGA 1st Team training at Hollinwell Sunday 2nd June in preparation for County week, was extremely valuable. This was an opportunity for the players selected for County Match Week to get together and play with potential foursomes partners. Playing a course out of county, which not all players have had the opportunity to play before meant that the players really had to communicate and work together to plot their way successfully around the course. The weather was fantastic and so was the course. Huge thank you to our County Captain, Suzanne Pretty, for organising. 

Unfortunately on Sunday 19th May the pre season friendly match against Warwickshire was cancelled. However our first team players selected for the match still got together and and played 36 holes in preparation for County week. County Captain, Suzanne Pretty used this opportunity to try out a variety of different foursomes pairings and strategies. 

Members of the 1st and 2nd Team squads gathered at Lingdale on Sunday 21st April for some early season matchplay practise. The sun was shining and the bluebells were in flower. After a long wet winter it's beginning to feel like the start of the golfing season! !st Team Captain Suzanne Pretty went out with the 2nd Team Captain Diana Miller. Caz Parkes-Walley, Vicky Mayfield, Tracy Bourne and Jo Morris-Bourne represented the 1st Team and Sarah Storer, Sally Jee, Lisa Porter and Georgia Mitchison represented the 2nd Team. The final score was a friendly half. 

Every year this match is played at the beginning of the season and is played at the same venue as the Ladies County Championship. 

This year the match took place on Sunday 14th April at Scraptoft Golf Club, each side fielded a team of 12 players who played 4BBB match play.

There were some strong pairings and great matches, all games were played in good spirit and the final score was 4 - 2 to the County Senior Men.
