Well Done Girls!
At 13 Ainee O'Connor from Sundridge Park, has just become the youngest player ever to play in the Mail on Sunday National Finals Day. She played in previous rounds for Sundridge winning all her matches helping the team to get to Manchester for the Finals.
Unfortunately she was beaten in a very close tight match at the Worsley Park Marriot by a much older experienced player
but she took her to the 17th and played magnificently.
Well done Ainee. A possible Kent Champion of the future??
Sundridge won the Grand Final in Spain in 2008 but
unfortunately on this occasion won't be repeating that
great achievment as they lost to Northamptonshire
County GC 41/2 - 1/2.
