Match vs Suffolk held at Diss on 30 September 2021

Ann Whittington reported on her last match as Match Captain and the last match this year which was v Suffolk played at Diss Golf Club.  This was a rearranged date as our original was scheduled to be played at the end of the Covid lockdown but still prior to any hospitality arrangements.  The match, however, was put under question with the fuel crisis but all players assured me they would manage to complete the return journey. 

The forecast was again predicting rainfall.  We were used to that by now and, although waterproofs were donned, spirits were not dampened!!!  5 x 4 ball matches were played.  Pippa Holliday, the Norfolk Veteran Ladies' President, was present to see us all off.  The course is better played with local knowledge as there are several holes with blind greens.  Norfolk won 3-2.

Hospitality provided by the club was very acceptable and enjoyed by all.

Thanks go to all the ladies who have played and supported me throughout this year........great camaraderie and team spirit.
