Midland 4 Counties - Broughton Heath Golf Club 19th-20th July 2018
Staffordshire Under 14's took on Derbyshire, Nottinghamshire and Warwickshire in the 4 Counties championship at Broughton Heath Golf Club.
The first match on Thursday aftertoon was played in hot, dry conditions against Derbyshire. The match was comfortably won by 4 games to 2. No match going beyond the 16th hole.
Friday morning, full of confidence the boys took on Warwickshire. Matches did not go according to plan and we are at a loss as to explain how Staffordshire lost the game 6 - 0. Three of the matches finished on the 18th, unfortunately possibly halved matches ended in defeats.
The afternoon match against Nottinghamshire would see the winners becoming runners up. Throwing off the disappointment of the morning the boys had a 5 - 1 win over their opponents. This time of the three matches that went to the 18th hole, two of them ended in Staffordshires favour.
