1st Team victory vs UK Armed Forces @ The Caversham GC 18th March

On a soggy and wet day (and golf course) the 1st team kicked off their competitive season with a 5-3 victory over the UK Armed Forces in singles matchplay. It was great to see Megan and Elizabeth fitting seamlessly in to the senior squad and playing really good golf.

Oxfordshire Girls Maintain Their Unbeaten Record!!

Sunday the 19th of March saw the 8th annual match between Oxfordshire County Junior girls and Kirtlington and Tadmarton boys, held at Tadmarton GC this year.

In first place were a team of juniors - Coco Mu, Stella Zhang and Carson Zhang. Second place went to the Fegan-Smith family and third place to the Bauder family. Andy E...

Bamberger Final 2022

The final took place today at Burford of the Bamberger Cup. As you can see and as you know from the flooding all around Oxfordshire, it was not the best day to play golf let alone a match-play final. Barbara Lowe (Tadmarton Heath) and Liz Nelson (Witney Lakes) managed to keep smiling and carry on with Barbara winning on the 14th. Both deserve a medal!
