New Lady Captain's Drive-in on Tuesday 8th October 2024 

 Our new lady Captain Jane (Redcoat) Hobbs held her drive-in, a 9-hole shotgun competition on Tuesday 8th October 2024. It was well attended with 13 teams of 4 players (52 in total) and the weather held out long enough for everyone to get around dry. The Winning team, was Amanda Lyth, Jane Parkin, Diane Hurdley & Jenny Kentish with 45 points. Emer Carr guessed the Captain's Drive correctly at 144 yards and Elaine Downes was nearest the pin on 5th hole. This was followed by a lovely light lunch for playing and non-playing ladies to get together and catch up and socialise. A great start to Jane's Captaincy. 

Taskers Ian Burtoft Trophy on Sunday 20th October 2024   

The Taskers Trophy Inter Club Competition is a singles match play Inter-Club knockout Competition format with 7 female players aged over 50 competing for the Ian Burtoft Trophy. This is the first year that Copt Heath entered this competition and getting to the final was a great achievement. The main purpose of this competition is to support Junior Golf in our County. 

In total, 19 ladies within the club played in the earlier rounds and the final . The final was held at Beeston Field Golf Club on Sunday 20th October and the team were Trish Grant, Amanda Lyth, Angela Russell, Jan Chapman, Jo Evans, Jenny Kentish and Joanne Hunt. 

Despite some very tough weather conditions on the day the matches were hard fought and the result of a loss 5 to 2. It was however much closer that the result depicted with 4 matches going to the 18th hole , one win and two halved matches. 

It was an incredible experience for all Copt Heath ladies who played in this competition and as a result of our endeavours Copt Heath will be receiving additional funds to support our juniors.  Well done to all the Copt Heath Ladies who took part in this competition. A special mention to Caroline Walker our team Captain, who organised and supported us all throughout and we could not have done it without her
