- Preparations well under way for 2005
6th February 2005 - Andy Kearns (1st Team Captain) gathered together at Stratford Oaks GC 18 of the players under consideration for County golf for 2005, for an intensive short game and pre play preparation day. Aided by Graham Hargreaves (WU Executive member who has managed much of the new County intitiatives behind ‘Team Warwickshire’) and prospective new County Secretary Graham Hayes, this was a first chance to see the results of individual players’ work during the off-season as Warwickshire prepare to defend the Midland title and look to making County Finals.
- Team Warwickshire 1 – A great start
All the friendlies are over, all the training sessions stored away. With the Berkshire taking place this weekend (taking away some of our best players), Andy Kearns was going to show how good the 1st and 2nd team squad is by picking a winning team – but that was not so likely after the morning session of foursomes against Shropshire & Herefordshire at Kenilworth GC on Sunday 6th June.
- 1sts have last warm-up match and Selection starts for the Midland League
As you can see from the Team Sheet, we lost our annual match against Smoerset. However it was a very good work-out and highlighted the importance of short game and putting in general
- Union Teams ready for 2004 - and GSA
Sunday March 14th and 38 of the 1st and 2nd team Squad gathered at the De Vere Belfry for the annual first meeting of each year. Their test, in 4 ball better ball competition, was the Brabazon, made even more difficult by a very strong wind. This feature covers a first interview with new 1st Team Captain Andy Kearns, contact info for Andy and detail of the new GSA system which will be of great benefit for any prospective County player.
- Fixtures for the 1st and 2nd teams
This is the Fixture List for the 1st and 2nd Teams for 2004. It is still at draft stage so there may be the odd change - please check back in the next few weeks. We will be asking the two new Team captains, Andy Kearns and Gordon Marston to review this list in the next week. Look out for their views on what lies ahead for our teams in the following year.
