Staffs Vs Nottinghamshire 2010

Staffordshire Senior's entertained the Nottinghamshire team in a home fixture at Great Barr Golf club on Wednesday 30th June. On a beautiful summers day golfing conditions were perfect; a gentle breeze somewhat akin to the Western Australian Freemantle Doctor blew over the sun kissed fairways like sweet Zephyrus. Great Barr Golf Club was in superb condition and the Staffordshire players took advantage of the perfect day. With a team somewhat weakened by the absence of several of the leading Staffordshire players a worried Captain Terry Henwood could hardly conceal his delight when his team completed the morning foursomes having dropped only half a point. He was even more overjoyed when the route continued in the afternoon and Staffordshire won every match to win by 17.5-.5; almost, but not quite equalling Dave Thomas? victory of 18-0 against Northamptonshire in 2007, a score that I doubt will ever be beaten. Well played Staffordshire and keep up the good work.

Congratulations To Ben Rhodes of Beau Desert Golf Club for his 100th appearance for Staffordshire Seniors. [See photo].
