The 67 players in the 44th annual Ladies Valley League Golf Competition had to battle for every inch of roll they could get on the rain-drenched Summer Heights Golf Course on Sunday, and in the end it was the home team claiming a very healthy win.
The hosting Summer Heights team put up just 940 strokes to reclaim the Valley League title after losing it to Cedar Glen in Williamsburg last summer.
Finishing well back of this year’s champs in second place was Prescott with 988 strokes. Third spot went to Iroquois at 1006, Morrisburg was fourth at 1023 and Cedar Glen was last with 1042.
The Ladies Valley League consists of 13-player teams, plus one spare. There are three players in each of A-B-C-D flight with the two best scores in each flight counted towards the team total. Also counting in the team total are the senior players’ scores.
Stephanie White led the Summer Heights team to victory with an 83, and Helen Greer-Doll counted the second A flight score with a 91.
