GOLF: Barn test for champs
TIDWORTH, winners for the past three years, will set out in defence of their Wiltshire Women's Scratch Knock-out Cup title with an away match against Wrag Barn, writes Ernie Newell.
North Wilts, last year's runners-up, have a first-round appointment with High Post over their own Blacklands course.
Marlborough have a home fixture with Broome Manor and Ogbourne Downs will also have home advantage against West Wilts.
Other first-round matches: Kingsdown v Chippenham; Erlestoke v Upavon; Salisbury and South Wilts v Cumberwell Park.
The Wiltshire have a bye into the quarter-finals where they will play either Marlborough or Broome Manor away from home for a place in the semis.
First round matches have to be played by April 27. The final will be played over a neutral course on September 20.
The final of Wiltshire women's inaugural Winter Scratch Knock-out Championship will be an intriguing all-Tidworth affair between teenage prodigy Hannah Turland and former Wiltshire women's skipper Di Gritt.
In the semi-finals, Turland, the England Girls Under 13s champion, beat another teenager, Emma Breen (Marlborough), while Gritt, county captain in 2003-04 and chairman of the Wiltshire Golf Partnership, defeated Tidworth club-mate Sarah Waugh.
The final will be played at Chippenham on May 3.
Before that, young Miss Turland has an appointment in Scotland.
She represents England in the Scottish Girls' Under 16s Open Stroke-play Championship and Nations Cup at Craigielaw (East Lothian) on April 10-11.
