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.

What a day! The wind was blowing a gale all day making conditions for the players very tricky. It really seemed to be survival of the fittest with keeping the ball in play being key. However the rain did hold off for the most part until play had finished. It was a real tussle between the two teams and 3 out of the 4 matches were very close, going down to the last hole.
Many thanks to Ipswich Golf Club for hosting the final. The teams were given a warm welcome by the club, the course was in excellent condition and the meal afterwards was much enjoyed.
