There was no cure and it was a bad case of wind and rain which lasted for the whole of the competition and the ladies just had to grin and bear it in the 16 hole Stableford (2 to count).
Such was the ferocity that it was a credit to those who finished and only four teams decided to call it a day with the brutal conditions when they reached the fourteenth which was only just playable with blustery rain affecting the putting surface.
The winning team of Caroline Casper (Outlane) ,Alison Tracy (Huddersfield) and June Sowden (Huddersfield) kept their heads down and took it all in their stride as they breezed to a two point winning margin which was helped with a 7 point haul on one of the holes.
In second place was Ann Hesselden (Outlane) , Gill Morris (Outlane) and Stephany Smith (Huddersfield) who had 39 points on the first nine but found the next 7 holes a struggle which proved to be decisive (20 points) as the winners racked up 29 of theirs on the incoming holes.
