HISTORY
The Kent County Ladies Golf Association had it's beginnings in 1900 when under the title Kent County Club, 56 members attended a meeting. The clubs represented by these ladies were Beckenham, Blackheath, Barham Downs, Eltham, Folkestone, Littlestone, Maidstone & Rochester.
In that year Kent played matches against the other newly formed Clubs of Herts, Surrey, Sussex, Middlesex & Devon.
The first Captain was Mrs S Stubbs and the County colours were a dark blue coat with white collar and a dark blue hat ribbon embossed with the White Horse of Kent.
The first County Championship was played at Maidstone Links in 1901 and was won by Miss D Jeffery.
From those humble beginnings the KCLGA has grown considerably with ladies & junior girls from 90 clubs throughout the County playing in a variety of competitions.
