Shurman tees off

THE new ladies’ captain of Badgemore Park Golf Club teed off her year in charge on a foggy morning.

Lesley Shurman teed off her year in office in front of a large field of ladies that played a nine hole Stableford competition.

Jan Erskine was the winner of the front nine with 20 points with Marion Denby runner-up on 18 and Rosemary French third with 17 on countback.

The back nine was won by Eileen Paddick with 20 points, Carol Comley was second with 18 and Sarah Kirby third with 16.

Joy Brinsford correctly guessed the position of the captain’s drive. Shurman has chosen Pond Meadow School as her charity this year and £550 was raised from this event.
