Match vs Suffolk held at Bungay Golf Club on 19th May 2014
NVLGS • June 1, 2014
The Vets team assembled at Bungay Golf Club ready to take on a Senior (not Vets!) Suffolk team in their first match of the season. It was sunny and very warm with the course looking inviting and, after some confusion over tee times, the match started on time!
The matches were played in a friendly spirit with lots of laughing in between some very good golf. The result was especially pleasing with a 3-1 win as we were comprehensively beaten by Suffolk last season. The Suffolk team were very welcoming and the day was enjoyed by all….especially the Suffolk player who just couldn’t miss a putt!! My thanks to the team….an excellent start….and especial thanks to Barbara Warren, our President, who came to support us.
The Results:
| NVLGS | Suffolk Team | Result | Score | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sue Hill & Maureen McRae | vs | Suffolk Team | Lost | 4 & 3 |
| Jill Innes & Eppi Zandvoort | vs | Suffolk Team | Won | 1 Up |

The Spring Four Ball Betterball Stableford was held at Gorleston Golf Club on 14th April 2025. Competitions Secretary Jill Bullimore reported that 92 members from 14 clubs took part. The weather was fine and dry. However, the wind did get stronger as the day progressed making this a factor to wrestle with. Gorleston Golf Club were superb hosts; everyone made every effort to make our day enjoyable. There were particularly satisfied faces after a lovely fish and chip meal. Congratulations to the winners, Sue Olds and Sue Fage from Wensum Valley, with a creditable 46 points.

Presentation of Trophies at the 2024 AGM
Angie Allsopp reported that 88 ladies from 14 clubs played in this event. It was a very good day, the weather was extremely kind and we were looked after very well by all the staff at Bawburgh. Everyone seemed to enjoy the day and quite a few stayed for the presentation. Unfortunately, we did not have a starter so everyone saw themselves off, which was not a problem.
Match Captain Sue Saunders reported that this match against Cambs & Hunts Seniors was rearranged from earlier in the year when rain stopped play. The games were played in good spirit and the individual matches were really enjoyed against good opposition. There is no question that the Norfolk team feel at home at the tree-lined King's Lynn course which was in excellent condition and a real pleasure to play on for our final match of the season. Hospitality provided was first-class and a great two-course meal was enjoyed by all. NVLGS colours were presented to Bev Fowler and rather belatedly to Sally Bettinson, Kath Malvern and Anne Sibley.
