Squad Training 21st April
A dry day for a change for the Training Session at Penrith Golf Hub. The County Ladies Squad were put through their paces with Andrew Pickering, working on short game pin challenge outside and wedge accuracy. Lee in the SAM put lab, perfecting putting techniques, posture and putter alignment. Russ delivering the importance of fitness, building stamina, hydration and increasing speed challenges.
The ladies challenge was five holes on the course with points scored for landing on the greens. The winner was Jo Ashworth, closely followed by Becca Wildey.
A great day with lots to take forward into their practice routines.
Thank you to all the coaches.
Good luck to Becca Wildey playing in the R and A under 16 Amateur Championships 26-28th April at The Berkshire.

Saturday 23rd April
The County Ladies with The County Vets against The County Senior Men at Penrith Golf Club.
Our first friendly match of the season in very challenging conditions. Singles matches played in pairs to get round in daylight.
A fantastic day enjoyed by all, brilliant atmosphere and a lot of banter in the groups. The men were victorious but the Ladies put up a very strong challenge.
A new format this year but may be continued in the future.
Very well done to all.
