Ladies Open – Wednesday 17^th August 2011.

Our teams consisted of 96 ladies from some 25 clubs as far afield as Cape Cornwall, Richmond, Yorkshire & Laerchenhof, Austria! Everyone enjoyed themselves despite the rain appearing unexpectedly halfway through the morning.

This year we had a very smart gazebo lent by the Seniors before 10^th tee where Julie & her helpers dispensed soft drinks & home-made cakes. These were much appreciated.

The course looked fantastic & there were many appreciative comments.

The Seniors did a brilliant job helping us with the starting & the putting.

Alex Radwell was a star again & set up the putting competition, checked the cards & kept the scoreboard for us.

Very many thanks to Judy Richards for organising the day’s events & for her beautiful flower arrangements. Thanks to all the Committee & ladies for their help & support meeting & greeting, helping in the starter’s hut & on the course with refreshments. Our thanks to the bar & kitchen staff for looking after us so well.

Through the generosity of the ladies buying raffle tickets & also entry to the putting competition an amazing £300.00 was made for my charity, the Alzheimer’s Society.

Many Ladies signed up to play in this match. The demand was so great that we had three Reserves and I therefore did not include myself and nominated Judy Richards as Captain for the day.

The weather was amazing and the girls performed well winning three and a half to one and a half.

Special mention should be made about Sally Taylor who played well and won her match with Lynn despite feeling unwell.

Thanks to Connie as Reserve for playing at short notice.

Judy was very impressed with her partner, Pat Harvey who played 'like a little star!'

Sandra Basford had many pars and no doubt her handicap will continue to tumble.

The Irish contingent was represented by Aideen and her opponent Eveleen O'Farell from Oake Manor. Apparently there was a lot of 'friendly banter' between the two of them.

Ginny from Oake Manor decided to have a practice on our course on Sunday only to achieve a hole in one.

Congratulations to her!!

The Tea was scrumptious, particularly the home made scones and Victoria Sponge. George even managed to rustle up some gluten free cookies for the lady from Oake Manor with special dietary needs!

A special thank you to Judy for taking charge and doing a great job.

Pink Lady Day

All the ladies looked amazing today in their pink outfits on a beautiful sunny morning at Long Sutton.

 It was incredibly difficult to decide who should win the prize for the best dressed 'Pink Lady' but Gwen's hand decorated pink visor won the day & Sarah Uzzell's pink absolutely everything (including in her handbag) won second prize.

The winners of the team Bowmaker were Ruth Lloyd, Anne Agnew & Jan Finan, second place went to Wendy Ball, Cheryl Stacey & Julie Taylor, 3rd place on countback went to Aideen Roche, Angela Baker & Pat Harvey. Very well done.

11 out of the 14 pink balls that went out came back! There were 10p penalties for landing in bunkers or in the water - £14.76 collected, £101.50 on the raffle & £82.00 in entry fees - a brilliant £198.26 in total for Breast Cancer Research.

Many thanks to Julie for her wonderful pink fairy cakes & Pink Lady cake after the game.

 FRIENDLY(A) V SHERBORNE ~  MON 11 JULY

 Long Sutton Ladies played their Friendly match v Sherborne on a beautiful sunny day.

Unfortunately we lost due to very challenging course with many slopes and hidden dangers and the Greens! Three days previously, a Charity event meant that the Greens had been shaved and participants had paid to place pins in the most difficult of positions!Even our most talented players struggled with their putting.

For a return match next year we have arranged for a Pro-Am event to take place the day before!

Thanks to the Ladies who took part and managed to laugh in the face of adversity!

Julie

On Monday June 6^th Long Sutton G.C. hosted the 2011 Somerset Ladies County Bowmaker Competition. 72 players took part, representing 10 different clubs within Somerset.

The weather was kind and many players remarked on the excellent condition of our course. Thanks to the ladies of the committee, and the catering staff, who worked so hard to make the event run smoothly and to give our visitors such a warm welcome. We should be proud of our club and course.

The competition finished on a very high note when the last group of players scored an eagle on the 18^th hole to clinch first place.

Our congratulations go to

The winners

                        Alicia Rees, Sue Radcliffe, Shirley Gooding     (75 points )

Congratulations to Aideen Roche on her  Hole in One on the 17th whilst playing with Mandy Head and Sara Ward during Ladies Morning on 1st June 2011.

The Trimatch Competition started about  seven years ago and had previously been played between Long Sutton, Chedington and Windwhistle. Sadly Chedington Golf Club folded earlier this year.  Wheathill have accepted the invitation to join us as of 2012. Therefore I am pleased to say that the Trimatch will be back to the three club format and we look forward to playing  next year.

Julie

The home Trimatch was played on Friday 13^th. Fortunately not unlucky for Long Sutton!

We were originally going to play as 2 balls, but it was decided that it would be much friendlier to play in fours.

The weather conditions were quite favourable, although at times rain threatened.

Long Sutton Ladies as ever played very sociable yet competitive golf!

The final result;

Long Sutton 175pts  Windwhistle 141pts

A special ‘well done’ should go to Sally Taylor for scoring 39pts off her7/8^th Handicap!

We look forward to our Away match in October.

Julie

Long Sutton was well represented at the Somerset Ladies Past Captains Team Event held at Botley Park in Hampshire on 8th and 9th May. 

It was a splendid occasion in lovely surroundings (although the greens are not a patch on Long Sutton's!).  Long Sutton having won or been Runners-Up for the last three years, it was the turn of the rookie past-captains, Gill Edwards and Hilary Dennes, to be part of the winning team, with two past-captains from The Mendip Golf Club. 

By not announcing the results of the Bowmaker until the prize-giving, the suspense was successfully maintained by this year's organiser, Sandra Ford, and the surprise and delight of the winning team, shown here with the trophy, are obvious.

We had a very good win yesterday against Farrington & last week against Wheathill - our first 2 matches at home. Followed by a marvellous tea - delicious sandwiches, cake & scones, much appreciated by all.

Well done to everyone.

Eliza

Results of our Round 2 match in the Mail on Sunday competition. 

I am very glad to let you know that Long Sutton Ladies won 4-1 against Windwhistle.  Congratulations to the team on a splendid result.

We are very pleased to report that the Ladies won their first round match at home against Wheathill 4-1 in the Mail on Sunday Classic

Lady Captain's Report - Club AGM - 1st November, 2010

I apologise in advance for the length of this report. My husband says I have verbal diarrhoea, but I think it is testament to the fun I have had!

This time last year, I was filled with excitement and trepidation at becoming Lady Captain for the year 2010. I felt like Harry Potter, waiting for the Hogwart's Express to come thundering through the wall of platform 93/4 at King's Cross Station. I am not kidding. I was so worried I would find myself standing here today, apologising for wrecking a year but I need not have worried - the Ladies have come up trumps and all I need do is hand out praise and thanks!

We have had some lows – speeding points on my license, for instance, on a Rogers Cup Day, just to add insult to injury – and we did not retain Top of the League, but we did come a close 2nd to Bath. Next year we renew our fight to reclaim first place by using our secret weapon – a batch of rapidly improving bronze players, one of whom is Julie Taylor, our new Vice Captain! There was also a sadness, when I had to attend the funeral of one of our previous Lady Captains, Maureen James and pass on our condolences to her husband Ken.

Against this, there have been so many more highs – With handicaps, Annabelle Faragher won the cup for Most Improved Player, moving from 15 to 8, Stacie Watts was second, 33 to 23. Both girls are now training with the County Firsts, a testament to Andrew's teaching, and we wish them a happy future. Annabelle has now moved to Burnham and Berrow G.C. It's lovely to see the Juniors do well but praise must also go to the third person on that list, one of our secret weapons, Angela Baker. She did not learn to play golf as a Junior, but has dropped from 34 to 26 this year! Finally, congratulations to Ros Williams for dropping to 12 and category 2.

More highs - our team of Past Lady Captains won their Team Event again. Sandra Ford and partner were 2nd in the County Fowler Brooches. Three ladies entered the County Championships this year, including Annabelle Farragher, and both Vanessa Watts and Annabelle won through to play for the Phillips Trophy. The ice now being broken, more ladies are keen to follow their example next season. At the SW Vets. Spring Meeting, Caroline Lumley-Frank came 1st in the Bronze Division.

At Club level, a busy year, with ever-increasing numbers playing. The beautiful summer encouraged people out – even our more tentative lady players were encouraged to play in our Joint Charity Match. Our guests heaped praise on us for our Invitation Day. One of my first delights of the summer was that the Mixed Open happened...at all...thanks to the support of Management and members alike, and that it was enjoyed by all. I hope it will keep happening. The same generosity of spirit applies to our Ladies Open. The machinations of County Highways looked set to scupper it by sending us all round in circles, but with help from my committee and ordinary members alike, who stepped forward out of the goodness of their hearts, the problems were solved and it was a great success. Sixteen different clubs were represented in 31 teams, a massive increase on last year, reflecting both the importance and success of last year's efforts and Long Sutton's growing reputation for having a beautiful course and being so welcoming.

We had more ladies than ever entering our Ladies Championships, including a group of 'really new to golf' ladies. Did they really know what they were taking on, thirty six holes in one day? A pat on the back to us all but special congratulations to Vanessa Watts, who is our Ladies Champion for the first time, Joce Dunevein, our Bronze Champion and Connie Stolworthy, our Seniors Champion.

Sandra proved a canny Tri-Match Captain and brought home the Tri-Match Trophy. We have won the majority of our Friendlies and Mixed Friendlies. All of this is good...We like winning, but really, the main point is that we enjoyed playing and helping our playing partners enjoy it too. With this in mind, I have awarded my Captain's Spoon to Dawn Pursey. For me, she puts things into perspective - she covers up her own problems with a laugh and makes sure everyone else around her has fun, proving you can be a winner on many different levels. I think the St. Margaret's Hospice Day comes into the same category. Thanks to all the ladies who contributed to that day but I will always remember arriving at the 14th, to be greeted by Angela and Sara, all smiles, saying “£5 please”. They did it with such charm. I did not feel a thing!

I shall not forget my 100 Holes in a hurry. Having overslept, I arrived in the gloom to find my helpers, Hilary Dennes, Sandra Ford and Kath Rushton patiently waiting with their respective, understandably irritated, husbands. Not a good start to a testing day but thanks to Sandra, Hilary and Kath for being such good friends and sports too and thanks to everyone for their encouragement and support that day. Hilary and Sandra both played 50 holes each and we raised £1,290 for my Charity, Asthma in Children at Yeovil District Hospital. The total raised to date by our Section is £2588.05. I am amazed by people's generosity. The Juniors alone raised £10 in fines for me in their match against us – the result of which we won't mention! – and that is a very special £10.

At the end of a busy, sunny summer, we squeezed in some Away Days, light relief after all the work - to the lovely Dainton Park and overnight at an exciting but exhausting Elfordleigh. We thoroughly enjoyed both trips – some of us really well... but our lips are sealed! More light relief when Andrew kindly gave his time to play four Charity Challenges for my charity. We had great fun with these and thanks to all who joined in.

I'm saving one major highlight, but I can't wait any longer! Apologies to Mick, but I have to say it again – the ladies won the Redwood Cup in two legs for the first time since 2003. I danced in the corridor and whooped with delight. Most unladylike! Thank you Mick and the Seniors and thank you the many ladies who played, but I think we had better make the most of it. The Seniors' dander will be up now and John will be out for revenge!

Nearly finally, thanks to my family for all their understanding. I hope Alex is ready for his year ahead, as well as Eliza! Take as given, my thanks to everyone involved with the running of the club, from Management to the members as a whole. You have all made my year that much easier and so much fun. Big thanks to my ladies and my committee, who have worked so hard, always cheerfully and always willingly and lastly, special thanks to my Vice-Captain, Eliza Vail, for all her patience. She has duly suffered her year of anxious waiting, but now her waiting is over, as I hand her the the honour and privilege of being the Ladies' Captain for the year 2011.

Andrew has kindly agreed to play a 9 hole Foursomes Charity Challenge for the last few weeks of my captaincy.

Our first challenge was from Sandra and Graham, and they beat us, helped in part by a near hole in one by Graham on the 7th. It was a complete demonstration of teamwork – one resting for 6 holes and one for 3! Well done them and thank you.

Challenge 2 - Again, not a good day for Andrew and myself! We were challenged by Sandra and Rob Ford who were the winners. I blamed my bad putting but then Rob came down in the Club Medal, so I didn't feel so bad as he was obviously in a purple patch. It was a fun 9 holes and thanks to them both.

Challenge 3 - Eliza Vail and July Taylor took up the challenge. I knew they would be a tricky pair but Andrew produced the magic and we won! Julie put right in her head the rules misinformation she had been given in our morning's medal! Again, thanks to them both for playing.

Well, Andrew's and my last Challenge - who did we have? Mrs. Ford (again!) and Mrs. Clarke. All I can say is that Andrew and I didn't break our pattern. We lost! I thought we had a chance, having dragged both ladies round Elfordleigh for two days. They will be shattered, I thought, but no...Gwen discovered that Less is Best, reduced her backswing and sailed down the middle of the fairways.

Well done them and thankyou to all who supported us in this bit of fun and and to you all for being so generous to my charity.

Gill

Thank you to the ladies who made this weekend such fun when we went on an Away Overnighter to Elfordleigh. Uphill and downdale, never a flat lie. How many times did we ricochet off dry-stone walls and clatter down through trees? Hasn't Orchardleigh taught us you need to stay on the fairway? Most ladies, and this is one, can't clear giant oak trees to get back on track. I must say the ladies that went are made of stern stuff - nobody used a buggy and despite free-flowing wine at dinner, all were present and correct for round two the next day. The cards for the two days showed that Eliza Vail was the overall winner, with Sandra Ford runner up, just beating Gwen Clarke who rallied well (teetotal) on day two!

Eliza also won our putting competition - Stableford last Wednesday. Watch this space!

Gill

We have played two Friendlies - the first Away at Orchardleigh we lost 3 and 2, but with satisfyingly close games, and the second was a walkover on Dawlish Beach greens here against Sherborne. We can obviously play better on sand than they can, but how much more work is being done here, compared to their own course, was not lost on the ladies I played with, one being next year's Lady Captain. They were very complimentary about our course, the food, the clubhouse and the welcome here.

We had a Mixed Friendly Away at Weymouth, which was another walkover, and I would like to say thankyou to Pam Frith, a new lady from Wheathill, and her husband, Alan, who is still a member of Wheathill, for stepping into the breach on the Sunday morning with about half an hour's notice when we had a couple withdraw. Their willingness to help was much appreciated.

Gill

I have to report that in our InterClub League, we have come 2nd in Div. 1 to Bath with a gap of 21/2 points. In part this was due to our bad result at Bath this month, where we only scored ½ point, that thanks to Sheena Smith. We simply couldn't putt on such slick greens. Should ours be faster? We have been strong at home with 2 full points matches against Wells and Mendip Spring but Bath have been stronger away. However, second to Bath is still a good result and I would like to say thankyou to all the ladies who are always so keen to play.

Gill

REDWOOD CUP

Well done the Ladies!!!

In case you don't know the good news, the Ladies have won the Redwood Cup for the first time since 2003.

If you remember, we won the first leg 8 and 6 and only lost the second leg by one match, so we won overall 141/2 to 131/2!

Thank goodness Judy and Marion didn't know how critical their match was.

To win was amazing. I still can't quite believe it, but the whole day was really what it was all about - the Ladies and the Seniors getting together, obviously (fiercely) competitive but having a jolly good laugh along the way and making everyone feel welcome and included on the day.

Thanks to all who found ways around their problems in order to play, thanks to the ladies who were nervous, but still played, but especially thanks to Pam and her husband John for starting the whole thing off.

She must feel really proud of what they have achieved.

Thanks

Gill

Trimatch 2010 Trophy

Congratulations to our Ladies who have won the Trimatch 2010 Trophy. Long Sutton have won by a margin of only 3 points beating Cheddington Court into 2nd place. Over 20 Long Sutton ladies contributed to this victory.

Thank you to Cheddington Court and Windwhistle for another enjoyable year of Trimatches.

Sandra Ford.

DAINTON PARK

Thank you to everyone who was able to join me at Dainton Park. I really did have a fantastic day and I think we all enjoyed it, even Judy when we rewarded her for now being so expert at bunker play.

I thank Vanessa, Eliza and Sandra for joining me in the changing room,trying to fathom out how to award my prizes, when Sandra had won nearly all of them single-handed! When will that lady become Silver?!!

If you haven't already been there, Dainton Park is well worth the visit – the food was delicious and the view from the dining room, looking out into the hills, was amazing. Mind, the conversation was amazing too...did I really hear the word “mooning” and did Sandra really pass Caroline at 90mph?

As you can tell, it was a really good day.

Thank you everyone. Lots of laughter.

Gill

LADY CAPTAIN'S DAY

We really have been blessed with good weather this summer. My Lady Captain's Day was another beautiful day on Wednesday, 1st September. It felt quite odd as I saw the last group off, not having my golf shoes on and setting out too.

Thank you to everyone who was able to join in with the day. You all stayed cheerful as you battled with the strange game. I really thank you for that. I'm sure it threw up some odd situations – but not, thankfully, a hole in one on the day!

Thanks to the catering staff for another fine meal, and the greenkeepers for our beautiful course.

Winners were -

1st – Eliza Vail, Pat Whitehead, Morag Owen-Burke, Sandra Basford

2nd – Margaret Bennett, Wendy Ball, Pat Harvey, Libby Close

3rd – Sheena Smith, Judy Richards, Julie Taylor, Maggie Parker

4th - Ros Williams, Sally Taylor, Caroline Lumley-Frank, Sally Tomsett

Best Front 9 – Val Fraser, Sandra Ford, Kath Rushton, Pauline Boxall

Best Back 9 – NOT Connie, Pam, Frances, Kate

BUT Joce, Bridget, Sylvie and Mandy

Thanks to these people for their good humour -

Prize for those especially in need of polish – Anne, Janet, Marion and Lynn!

Special prize to Sandra for giving me the first laugh of the day – she had grabbed the wrong colour handbag for her outfit in her rush not to be late.

Well done Everyone!

Gill

100 HOLES

Hilary, Sandra and myself would like to say Thankyou to everyone for their support in our 100 Hole Marathon. We started later than planned, because I overslept! We struck our first ball off the 9th at 6 a.m. and arrived back at the club 12 and three quarter hours later, having played 5 complete rounds and 10 holes virtually non-stop. In fact, we only stopped 3 times to use the loo and change our socks! We ate and drank on the move.

Sandra and Hilary both completed 50 holes and Kath Rushton drove our buggy all day, zipping from one to the other of us. Thank you to all three ladies from me.

Thank you to Graham and Felicity for giving us the use of the buggy all day,and thankyou to the pro-shop for gathering in donations for us. On the day they collected £130, with promises of more. My husband's firm, Battens, sponsored us through their Charitable Trust, with a donation of £250.

Thank you to the lovely people on the course that day, who waved us through and geed us on.

I chose to raise money to be used for children with asthma at Yeovil District Hospital, because of their help with one of our daughters in particular. She has been in and out of hospital since she was 6 months old and we owe the hospital everything.

Now I have one enormous blister to heal and the task of gathering in any donations you wish to make. Please put your money in an envelope marked “Holes” and your name, and hand it in to the pro-shop for me.

Thank you again from us all.

LADIES CHAMPIONSHIPS

Wednesday 21st July 2010

Hats off to everyone who took part in our Ladies Championships – those who willingly/foolishly put themselves through the ordeal of concentrating for two qualifying medal rounds in one day, and those Senior Ladies, who knew they only had one bite of the cherry with one qualifying round!

Very well done to those ladies whose handicaps came down and a special well done to the “newer ladies to golf”, who undertook this baptism of fire.

  Why do we do it?/?....

because it was fun and a buzz and we will do it again next year...only better.

Gwen Clarke, Ros Williams, Sheena Smith and Sandra Ford did Long Sutton proud by winning the Somerset Past Ladies Captains' Trophy at Lanhydrock on the 9th and 10th May. They beat 16 other teams and won by 30 points. A 2 spot by Gwen earned them 5 dozen golf balls as only one other 2 spot was obtained. Our other team of Margaret Bennett, Connie Stolworthy, Hilary Dennes and Marlene Paterson were a creditable 6th. Well done everyone for putting Long Sutton on the map.
