Well done Boys, the win we needed and clearly the pressure didn’t affect Arthur Nott Bower, whose match went down to the wire, to secure the win on the 18th.

All the matches were close and as always, played in good spirits.

Louis also win the longest drive on the 7th hole.

Harriet Newman won nearest the on the 4th hole.

On a beautiful sunny day, my Kernow Cup Team, along with caddy supporters, headed over to Carlyon Bay for our away match.

Due to being one match down before we even got there, it did not deter them from giving it their all.

With Samuel losing his match, we were now two down. Millie, who was 4 down and yet Again, she turns it around to win her match. Leaving Doug and Annabel, to try and both win their matches for us to take the match!

Unfortunately they both lost on the 18th BUT, what they didn’t lose, was the experience from matchplay, playing  another course and being part of a team!

I couldn’t not have been any prouder of how you all conducted yourselves,
THANK YOU.

One more match to play and that’s at Home, Bring it On!

Congratulations to Paul and his son Jackson, (9yrs old) for winning the Buse Shield with 35pts.

This is an Absolutely, fantastic result  for what’s been a busy weekend of Juniors competitions for my experienced Juniors and my young up and coming Juniors.

We entered the Kernow Cup this year, not knowing if we would even be able to field a team, due to where we are with the next Juniors coming through.

We  have a few, who are very keen and now learning how to play matchplay and play in match conditions.  All of this is good for them, when in an environment, where we are encouraging and helping them at this stage.

I am Bursting with joy for you all, as are the rest of those involved.

Bolitho Team Match
Lost 11/2 – 3

It was a tough ask for 3 of these Juniors who had played the night before and all on a high after the Carlyon Bay win and now teeing off again at 9.30am at St Austell.

As always, some great golf was played and the scores do not reflect the way they all played.

Well done to you all and roll on the home match!

Alfie Chapman, U16’s South West Champion.
Thursday 28th May

As if the day at Bude, couldn’t get any better, for the U14’s/U16’s Cornwall Team, who won the Southwest Championship for the first time in 14 years!

Alfie came in with the best result, winning with a gross par 68!

What a performance Alfie, excellent scoring and on quite a tricky course, although clearly not for you, or your Team Mates! What next?

Well done to you, and all the Managers, County Coaches, Richard Sadler and Nicolas Brewaeys.
You’re all in good hands.

All results here

It was 14 years ago when the U14’s/U16’s won the South West Championships and when Harry Hall was a part of that team. So this really is something very special.

The County Managers decided to do an unusual 5/4 split, in favour of the U14’s, which paid off, as the boys beat Devon, Wiltshire, Gloucestershire, Dorset and Somerset, to go on to win.

What an achievement and one that Cornwall Golf and everyone involved in, should be very proud of.

We have some excellent Juniors coming through at the moment here in Cornwall and with quite a few selected to play here at St EnodocThe futures looking great for Cornwall’s young, up and coming Juniors golfers.

I am so proud of you all and especially our own St Enodoc’s Juniors, Harry Jolliff, Alfie Chapman, Oli Hanton and Will Dingle.

What a win and a well deserved one too, due to all the effort and commitment you all, put in.

Sam also had his first ever hole in one, on the 8th during his first round! Well done for keeping your head after that!

Sam, has been having some great rounds lately and it’s not easy or you wouldn’t think so, when so many of our Juniors are playing off such low handicaps and they still keep dropping!

What Fantastic news, to end a glorious weekend with, well done Sam and well deserved.

The Junior Winter Knockout finals, finally comes to an end, with the Junior Captain Quinn Bateman winning 2-1 against Eva Newman.

 Harry and Jack Jolliff.

Congratulations to Harry Jolliff, who is the winner of the Brian Gripe Junior Summer Knockout 2025, beating his brother 6/5 after 36 holes! It was very close, as after the first 18 holes Harry was only 1 up.

Speaking to Jack afterwards, he praised his brother, for playing so well and how he really needed  to play just a little better, to have beaten him!

Well done to you both, for getting to the finals.
