Dunham Forest Golf Club secured the main trophy at the 17th Ladies National Tournament, held at Moor Allerton Golf Club in Leeds.

Twelve teams featuring 84 players competed at the prestigious event, which is the only competition where ladies from Jewish Golf Clubs and Societies all over the UK and Ireland have a chance to compete with each other.

The South Manchester club won the Team Gross, as well as the Singles Gross, Singles Nett Runner-up, Fourball Gross, Combined Singles & Fourball Gross and Team Singles Nett.

There was much excitement early on in the tournament when Judy Byrne Murray from Edmondstown in Dublin had a hole in one on the 4th par 3 and she then went on to win the Singles Nett trophy.

Sarah Calmonson from Dunham Forest clinched the Singles Gross with an excellent round of 86.

Moor Allerton won three trophies – Fourball Gross Runners-up, Fourball Nett and Team Fourball Nett, while Edmondstown from Dublin claimed the Singles Nett, Combined Singles and Fourball Nett and the Team Nett.

The teams this year were Abridge, Bonnyton, Coombe Hill, Dyrham Park, Dunham Forest, Edmondstown, Hartsbourne, Lee Park, Moor Allerton, Shirley, Whitefield and a Combined Societies Team.
