After two weeks of friendly team competitions the Sidmouth ladies returned to serious action with their first individual handicap qualifier of the season, writes Angela Coles.
The Centenary Trophy was the prize on offer.
This trophy was donated to celebrate 100 years of the Sidmouth Ladies Section in 2007.
The format is match play against the course where the player, either, wins, loses or halves the hole.
Thirty-six ladies entered the competition and, despite the early light showers, the odd rumble of thunder in the distance, we mostly played in warm sunshine.
