EGU County Junior Championships

Midland Qualifying

Played at NEWARK GC

on Wednesday 1st June

The NGU Junior Team with Jim Campbell, Gordon Rising and Shane Rose

MATCH REPORT

A great team spirt and we couldn't have asked any more from the lads. Dan Ashcroft won the Best AM score with a 1 under par 70, in the afternoon Mike Campbell equaled the course record with a 4 under par 67. A fantastic performance from all the lads who took part. We fell 14 shots short of Lincolnshire but we couldn't have had a better spirit and committment from the lads.

A big thanks should go to a number of people involved.  Adam Myers, who took control of the lads for the whole 2 days. He has done a fantastic job in motivating the players. Thanks to the County First Team Captain Jim Campbell for giving up 2 days to be with the lads and support them.

Thanks also to Brad Green and Gavin Cope, Brad was the 1st resereve for the team, but along with Gav, travelled with the team and caddied for the 36 holes of the tournament. Gav and Brad both played an important part in helping not just the players they caddied for but helping add to the spirt of the team.

I would also like to thank Gordon Rising for giving up his day to come and support the lads. I think the Juniors made Gordon poud to be from Northants yesterday.

I also have to thank me very close colleague Nick Soto, I feel that with his knowledge and expertize that lads are starting to develope a winning attitude and mentallity. I'm sure that Northamptonshire will become succesfull in the future with what myself and Nick are trying to install into the players.

Lets hope on the back of this result that the Team can get some good results in the Anglian League. I think with the continued support from our county that our lads could go 3 places better next year

Many thanks
