Rain stopped play on the final day of the Village Competition. A last minute indoor putting competition was organised instead, which proved to be quite challenging but very successful!! The overall results were:
1st. The Village People
2nd. The Townies
3rd. The Beasties
4th. The Westies
A big thank you to Pip, the captains, vices and all those who prepared food for the halfway house.

Last night saw the end of season dinner for the Ladies Handicap League teams. As you may know, Burghley has three teams in the county league and the success of the teams continues! The A team retained it’s place in Division 1 following promotion last year - a very good result. The B team won promotion from Division 4 to Division 3 with a remarkable unbeaten record. Congratulations went to Penny Campbell who had the best performance of the year, winning all the matches she played. Keep it up Pen! The C team will remain in Division 6 following some very tough matches. Our thanks go to the team captains and vice captains who do a great job arranging matches, whipping us into shape and herding us on the day! A team captain Sandy Bushby is standing down this year and Gail Hunt is stepping up - well done Gail! Sue Churchill will remain as vice. Jane Saggers and Mel Griffiths will continue as Captain and Vice of the B team. Jan Devlin and Chris Taylor are standing down from the C team but Lynn Collen and Elaine Brown will take over. The team squads pass on our thanks and best wishes to you all. We had a great evening with good food, plenty of celebratory wine and CJ’s ever present mobile disco! Well done Burghley Ladies.
Today at Burghley Golf Club, the Burghley Ladies Blog was launched at the Ladies' Annual Meeting. It was felt that communication for the ladies needed to be enhanced whereby information is posted on a regular basis. Sandy explains how the blog has worked well at other clubs around the country. Hopefully members will be kept up to date on everything happening within the Ladies' Section.
