Winning the Midland Boys is some achievement, giving a player a reputation to live up to. After last years triumph, the silky skills that Ben showed that day have been under a little bit of pressure but today, at Moor Hall, Ben added another prestigious trophy to his collection.
A very special win for Madden
John Madden only took up the game of golf in his mid 30’s. Since reaching ‘Seniors’ age, he has competed every year for Warwickshires most prestigious Trophy for the Senior golfer and twice he has lost in a play-off.

Warwickshire crowns its youngest ever champion – Jamie Carney
The 1st ever Warwickshire Schools Championship was held on Tuesday 12th August over the excellent 9 Hole course at Lea Marston.

The best player was going to win and that was Jamie Carney, but it was very close.
Sant takes Warwickshire Championship No1
For Jack Sant, this was a very special day. He is only 14 and will qualify for the U15s next year but along with Leigh Pritchard, Tom Price and Steve Mumford, he is one of a select group of very talented Juniors who are expected to carry on the incredible level of success for our County in future years. All the above, and a number of others, have done well at U16 s level playing and winning matches against the best from other Counties. There have been hiccups though and all our Juniors know of the success that the County has had, and of the players who have gone on to Tour success. One such player, and past U15s Champion, is Paul Broadhurst, a name Jack was first to mention.
