Handsworth Lady President, Nicky Edwards played 100 holes on Sunday 29th August and raised around £1,300 for Cystic Fibrosis.
Nicky played some excellent golf on the day, gaining 4 birdies and to many pars to remember. When asked how she got on, she said for the full rounds completed I shot net 75, 77, 77, 77 and 72 (which is not bad of a 6 handicap). She also said it was achieved with the same ball (poor ball). For us mere mortals who deal in stableford points that would equate to 162 point for the 5 rounds at an average of 32.4 (not bad). Nicky did say the one downside to this is that she now knows she needs 4 practice rounds to play her best !
Nicky would like to thank all the members for letting her through and all her caddies for the day Justin Craig (18), Gary Thompson (18), Pat Wallington (18), and the iron lady of caddying Val Mason a massive (46). She also has a massive thanks to everyone who sponsored her for the day. If anyone else would like to sponsor her please let Nicky or the Captain know.
Nicky celebrates putting out on the final hole.
