The ladies Captain v Secretary competition was a 5-a-side affair. The Lady Captain, Susan Smith, was in determined mood scoring 37 points for her own team including a birdie on the 7th hole which netted her 5 points! Unfortunately the rest of her team (Val Riziotis, Nina Humphries, Maureen Slade and Julie Smyth) didn’t fare so well and the Lady Secretary’s (Cheryl Woodhouse) team won by 5 points with Anne scoring a great 39 points.

The winning team was Cheryl, Anne Holding-Parsons, Lia Donath, Sheena Harrington & Joan Mulcahy.
