Jacqui Harbor represented Chesfield Ladies Section in The Club House Champion of Champions on Saturday at The Warwickshire She played well until she encountered a horrible bunker which spoilt her round. She did enjoy the day though. We are very grateful to Jacqui for stepping in at short notice to represent our section.

Kathy D and Sarah represented Chesfield Ladies in the Powell Cup. It was a cold day and they had formidable opponents. They fought valiantly but it wasn’t their day. Thank you girls for representing Chesfield Ladies
