⛳ Cumbria Girls at Windermere Golf Club
What a day for golf! Bright sunshine, warm weather and absolutely breathtaking scenery!

This was a fantastic opportunity for our Development Squad to get together and play a new course.
The course proved to be a challenge with knowledge of best 'lines' being given by Captain Ruth, President Linda, and County Handicap Adviser Carol. Thank you, ladies!
We had 8 girls able to attend, and we played a Florida Scramble. The winning team of Captain Carys, Beth, Leah, and Lucy won by 3 strokes - well done girls!
Thanks to all the chauffeurs for the team - your support is very much appreciated.
