Cheshire Girls Championship 2026
Prestbury provide a tough test for the cream of Cheshire
Prestbury Golf Club are hosting the English Girls Championships in a couple of weeks and they showed very clearly the tough test their excellent course will provide to the players in the Cheshire Girls championships.
Prestbury provided excellent hospitality, friendly support for the busy and efficient Cheshire organising team to make sure the competition flowed superbly throughout a busy day.
Cheshire President Marjorie Griffiths said: “Prestbury was in excellent condition,but still a tough challenge. As always they are wonderful hosts and we do appreciate all the support that they so willingly give to Cheshire Golf.
“Thank you to the officials and the parents who are always prepared to walk the course and act as spotters.”
There were plenty of challenges on all of the holes and stray shots were severely punished but the players kept their nerve led by the new champion Jess Flynn (Bramhall Golf Club), who had led Cheshire Girls to a big win over Yorkshire Girls in the previous week.
Jess posted a gross 87 to win the u16 Champions Trophy and also the County Champions Trophy presented by Cheshire President Marjorie Griffiths (Ringway GC).
The u14 champion was Yasmine Chambers (Wallasey GC) with 89 gross and the Nett Champion was Ellie Cunningham (Lymm GC) with a three under par 71.
Two’s prizes went to Esme Graham (Wallasey) on hole 10, Jess Flynn and Keira Saunders (Royal Liverpool GC), both on hole 17 and Olivia Smith (Stamford) on hole 7.
