What a great achievement by the seniors team on Wednesday, 18th June 2025, in the match against Erewash (or should i say Whitewash) as the final result was Beeston Fields 8 Erewash Valley GC 0. Thank you to everyone who participated in the match, especially the last-minute substitutes. The full results are in the News Section.
"Vice-Captain Phil Harrison took the Captain's armband for the first time for the away match at Horsley Lodge. He and Richard Bursztyn led the team off to a good start, using the novelty of receiving lots of shots (for once) to win 5 & 4.
The remaining matches were a bit tougher in the wind and on Horsley Lodge's undulating greens, yielding just one more half point from Stu Thompson and Malcolm Leivers. The final result was Horsley Lodge GC 6½ and Beeston 1½, but it was a grand day out on a very good course. As Phil said (maybe slightly tongue-in-cheek), it's taking part and having a good time that's more important than the result!!! The full results are in the News Section.
Thanks to all who played."
Cheers,
Phil
Our return Match against Kedleston Hall GC took place on Friday, 6th June 2025.
