2007 Competitions:

The ladies in the Silver Division put forward a preference to return to playing in the Silver Trophy rather than the Harris Bowl.  As the same players cannot compete in both competitions the Harris Bowl will be dropped next year and we have entered teams in the County Bronze Shield, Silver Trophy and Munro Foursomes.

In the Bronze Shield we have been drawn against: Wanstead, Thorndon Park, Woolston Manor, Harwich & Dovercourt; Romford and West Essex.

In the Silver Trophy we will be meeting: Maylands, Five Lakes, Wanstead, Colne Valley, The Essex, Canons Brook and Basildon.

The Munro Foursomes competition has not yet been drawn. 

 

 

General Matters

New Lady Members:  We are pleased to welcome Elizabeth Williams, Susan Hickman and Adelaide Minnis.

The Committee is looking forward to as many ladies attending as possible – an opportunity to put forward any suggestions you may have for the benefit of the section and also to meet together, which we are unable to do very often.
