Having mentioned the list of finals coming up last week, I am delighted to inform you of our first victory! This was a 2.5-0.5 victory by our juniors over West Kent at Chisel Hurst Golf Club.
It was an exciting weekend for your Junior section at Kings Hill with the squad playing three matches over the weekend. Our younger players played in the Kent league away to Gillingham, with an average age of 11 and a 50% boy/girl split (seen above)! The excited youngsters played their socks off to get an away draw and valuable points for the team. The results were as follows:
Jake Antoun and James Francis won 6&5
Luca Babadi and Charlotte Heard lost 3&2
Olivia Heard and Maria Babadi drew all square
Both 2nd and 3rd pairs battled back from large deficits (both were four down at one stage) on a course they had never played before and a scoring system that was very new to them! It was a fantastic team effort who had an average age of exactly 11... It was great to see all the Kings Hill parents and players (and siblings) follow the last group for the last few holes - with everyone encouraging each other. Congratulations to the more senior junior team for their win at Chislehurst also - not many clubs in the country could field two such competitive teams on the same day.
Last weekend's achievement is a real statement to other clubs of the hard work over the past eight years by my team and I. We, as coaches, take great pride in the success of all our pupils. Personally, this weekend felt like a significant milestone to achieve.
