The match against Oxfordshire was played at Tadmarton Heath, a challenging course with some interesting holes often with hidden greens and trees and gorse bushes to penalise a wayward shot.
Several of our ladies had not played there before and it was encouraging to see that after 6 games had finished we were all square with 2 wins and 2 halves .The weather had been kind with just a hint of rain and as the penultimate game came in with a win for Oxfordshire 2 and 1 it rested on the last match which finished on the 18th with Oxfordshire sinking the winning putt.
Thank you to all the Northamptonshire ladies some of whom had travelled from the North of the County and there were compliments on the good condition of the course.
