On Wednesday Sidmouth ladies played for the Dodd Salver.

The trophy was presented back in 1978 by Mr H Dodd in memory of his wife, Clarice Dodd.

The weather played its part in proceedings too for the threatened rain did not materialise.

The winner on the day was Sue Billinghurst with a net 66, and that also led to her winning Division Three – and seeing her handicap cut by three shots which means she will now be playing off 27.

The runner-up was Maria Clapp with a net 69, playing to her handicap. The Clapp round also led to her winning Division One and she too had a handicap reduction and will now play off 19.

Well done ladies, for these handicap reductions.

Third place went to Sheila Faulkner and Division Two was won by Ann Willoughby.

Three ladies: Maria Clapp, Sheila Faulkner and Gill Paddon, scored twos during the meeting.

On Friday the East Devon ladies Presidents team travelled to Libbaton Golf Club where they took part in another most friendly fixture.

However, the score was not in their favour as they lost one-and-a-half to five-and-a-half.

Well done though, to Sheila Faulkner for winning her match and to Maria Clapp for halving hers.

On Tuesday The Sheelah Creasy team played at Exminster where they were four-and-a-half to two-and-a-half winners. This was an excellent result given the team were playing away from home.

The winning ladies were: Liz Chance, Sue Billinghurst, Andrea Milton and Sue Hackett. The ladies were made very welcome and indeed, thoroughly enjoyed both the visit and the post match refreshments.
