SIXTEEN teams of seven ladies from golf clubs around Hampshire and Dorset took part in the Wellow Ladies Spring Rally recently.

Now in its 11th year, the rally was held in perfect conditions; it's always more fun when the sun is shining!

Once again Chevrolet dealers Denkale Ltd sponsored the event.

The large clubhouse and 27 hole course means Wellow is an ideal venue for an event of this scale; an excellent buffet and the course at its best made for a wonderful day.

The raffle made £244 for the Captain's Charity, Southampton Cystic Fibrosis fund.

The prizes were presented by 2006 lady captain Jill Heale and Wellow's First Lady Captain and now club President, Wynn Gould.

Thanks to Denkale's sponsorship, four teams received prizes plus two more for 'nearest the pin'.

The winners were Dunwood Manor with 169 points, followed by Hamptworth with 167, Dudsbury with 164 and Salisbury & South Wilts with 159.

Nearest the pin winners were Diana Durban from Dunwood and Jan Smart from Southampton GC.
