RESULTS FOR COUNTY COMPETITIONS 2011 

Watson Williams and County Foursomes Results 2011

FINALS DAY ….. IN THE CLOUDS

 

Cotswold Hills and Ross-on-Wye were comfortable winners of the Watson Williams and County Foursomes respectively when the finals were played at Stinchcombe Hill GC at the weekend.

 

In the Watson Williams, the scratch foursomes, Val Smith and Sam Round from Cotswold Hills, defeated Minchinhampton’s Frances Lindley and Sue Heathcote 4/2. They finished in style with a fine birdie on the 16th after Minchinhampton had chipped in for their par from well off the green.

 

Broadway’s Vicky Watkins and Pauline O’Hagan were playing catch-up from the start giving seven shots to Sarah Forrest and Kerry Welding from Ross in the County Foursomes, the handicap version of the game. The Ross ladies also finished this match on the 16th, winning 3/2.

 

And all players – and the few brave spectators, not to mention the stalwart caddies and referees! – had to battle foul weather as well! High on the escarpment, Stinchcombe Hill certainly showed its teeth throwing high winds and swirling low clouds and mist into the equation!

Margaret Morse, playing on her home course, won the County Kitcat Cup played on the Cherington Course at Minchinhampton Golf Club on Friday (September 9th) – but the result went down to the wire, only being decided on a countback.

 

She and Trisha Gould (Broadway), both of whom incidentally have only relatively recently started playing golf, both scored 40 stableford points.

 

Full Results: Winner of the Kitcat Cup: Margaret Morse (Minchinhampton New)

 

Bronze Division: 1st Trisha Gould (Broadway) 40 pts., 2nd Rose Walker (The Bristol) 37, 3rd Catherine Beale (Cotswold Edge)

Silver Division: 1st Barbara Watson (Naunton Downs) 36 on cb from 2nd Chris Park (Cirencester), 3rd Frances Lindley (Minchinhampton New) 34

 

Historical Note: From A Celebration … of Ladies’ Golf in Gloucestershire

KITCAT CUP:  Presented in 1905 by the Rev. Kitcat, father of our first recorded captain and secretary, Miss S.W.P.Kitcat.  It was originally known as the Challenge Cup, or sometimes the County Cup, and the final was a matchplay tournament.  It is our oldest trophy, and until our championship began in 1913, this was THE trophy.  Over the years its format has changed, its importance has become diluted.  The early winners’ names engraved on it are, quite simply, a record of our history.  The first winner was M.B.Woollcombe-Boyce -- followed by Sybil Kitcat, Miss Bramwell, Phyllis Clark…. and on to Frances Mann, Margaret Joshua, Marjorie Williams, Hilda Pickup, Peggy Baker, Dorothy McLennan, Peggy Reece, Vivian Wilde and Caroline Griffiths.
