Trophy History
The idea of the Seniors Jubilee Shield was conceived in 2010. The then President, Judy Hamshere, was keen to act upon feedback received from Clubs, whose members had requested that consideration be given to a senior competition played over 18 holes being added to the family of inter-club knockout competitions.
The Senior Jubilee Shield was first presented in 2012 and has proved to be extremely popular.
Senior Jubilee Shield 2026
The final of the Senior Jubilee Shield was played between Diss and Aldeburgh at Hintlesham Golf Club.
A closely fought match, between two competitive teams, it was played in good spirit and went down to the wire in the final game-
Diss were one hole down with two to play…..they managed to win these two holes, thus resulting in a tie overall – two games apiece! So a sudden death playoff ensued, with Diss seizing victory on the first extra hole. A great final!
Our thanks to Hintlesham for hosting the event and to Matt Sherlock, our referee for the day.
