Colne Valley Golf Club’s Charley Hatley had plenty to smile about as she retained the Jan Eves Trophy for topping the girls’ Order of Merit on the Coastal Junior Tour.

Hatley beat Harwich Golf Club’s Abbie Henshall to the title and the Valley youngster also claimed the first Coastal Tour matchplay title, while another Colne Valley member, Thomas Mead, was the clear winner, by some margin, of the scratch Order of Merit title.

Colne Valley’s cubs were victorious in the younger junior competition on the Kirby course at Frinton Golf Club, seeing off teams from Frinton and Millers Barn.
