Sixty ladies take on Ladies Invitation at Haywards Heath Golf Club

Sixty ladies played on a course that was in excellent condition and in weather which was more like mid-Summer than Autumn. At the renowned “Half Way Hut” our Lady Captain had set up a gazebo where “Pimms”, cake and a variety of savoury snacks were on offer, served by Donald Parvin (husband of the Lady Captain) and some of the other lady members who were not playing on that day.

Following the golf, the ladies were treated to a delightful buffet lunch following which prizes were presented by the Lady Captain, Rosemary Parvin, assisted by the Competition Secretary, Jenny Steele.

In first place, with a marvellous 44 points, were Jenny Turner and Sal Howland (Royal Wimbledon). In second place, with 39 points, were Meg James and Sue Hollands (East Sussex National). Third place, with 37 points, went to Dora McCabe and Lesley Horne (Cuckfield). Best front nine, with 19 points, was won by Marjorie Wallis and Liz Priestland (Lindfield). Liz Barrett and Wendy Waite (Cuckfield) won best back nine, also with 19 points. Nearest the pin on the 7th was won by Karen Lloyd (HH) and on the 17th by Janet Garbutt (HH). Congratulations to all our winners and we hope to see everyone back again next year.
