Bracken Ghyll - The club's ladies team beat a strong Northcliffe team in a sudden death play-off to progress in the Daily Mail National Championships last week. The team of Chris Knowles, Gunilla Vriesendorp, Gill Witherington and Karen Lampkin fought hard against their low handicap opponents finishing the day at two matches all. As the last player out, Karen then held her nerve in the play-off winning the match for Bracken Ghyll on the 20th hole. The team is now through to the third round.
