Countdown to 100th Men's County Championship

The much anticipated 100th Men's County Championship begins on Thursday 25th June at Delamere Forest GC.

Delamere hosted the inaugural championship back in 1921 when Wilmslow's Geoffrey Tweedale beat Israel Sidebottom in the final. The format of the championship changed to 72-hole strokeplay in 1962. This will be the 12th time the championship has been contested over the delightful Delamere course which is always in excellent condition.

The most recent renewal of the County Championship at Delamere, in 2021, saw host club member James Ashfield record an astonishing total of 263, comfortably the lowest total ever recorded in this championship.

As expected, we have a full field including defending champion Sam Johnson of Astbury GC
