Handicap GC Festival Winners 2023

Barbara writes: On Saturday, in heatwave conditions, the "Walker" trio won 3 games out of 5 leaving us in 4th place. The Sunday forecast was for rain and thunder after lunch and it was accurate. The Sunday morning games were won by Barbara & Ursula 7 - 6 and Ted & Claire 8 - 4. The predicted rain arrived on time and in torrential conditions Ursula & Claire produced the win of the day 7 - 6 against Westmorland. Barbara & Ted prevailed over LLanfairfechan 7 - 5 also in the rain, in what was noted as the fastest game of the tournament. Playing against the Bury pair, using the advantage system meant they had to score 8 hoops to our 7. At 6 - 7 in their favour, we scored the next hoop to win 7 - 7 and it was this result that decided the game and retained the shield for Fylde.
