On Thursday 15 teams from around the county braved the miserable conditions as the Ladies’ Section hosted their first open Am-Am of the year.

Teams of four played in the Spring Waltz.

This was a stableford competition where the scores reflected the difficulty of the course.

Without doubt the ladies from Louth Golf Club mastered the conditions better than anyone else as they took home the majority of the prizes.

The winners were K. Hicks, J. Barber, T. Yeomans and J. Walsh (Louth) with 68 points, ahead of second-place L. West, C. Craven, J. Atkinson and E. Ballard (Louth) with 66 points.
