Challenge Cup Playoff

Today I will be playing golf in the first Challenge Cup playoff at Sylvania Country Club. Twenty plus years ago Belmont joined Stone Oak CC and Toledo CC for a golf tournament between the clubs top 8 women golfers. Last year the northern clubs of Inverness, Sylvania and Highland Meadows decided to have their own Challenge Cup Tournament and proposed their winning team playoff our winning team. Fast forward to August when Belmont beat Toledo and Stone Oak and now we are facing the Highland Meadows team that won the first Northern Challenge Cup.  Our team consists of Kathy Hoops, Sue Purewal, Myself, Marnie Ammonn, Renee Welch, Julie Huber, Peg Hanna and Bette Gilwee.  I will be playing as the second team with Marnie Ammonn. The format is one best ball for the front nine and  stableford scoring for both balls on the back nine.  We had a practice round at Sylvania last week and it was fun to see the course especially for a couple of our players who had not played it before. Dinner tonight will be a Belmont. We are hopeful it will be a celebration.
