Pearson Trophy Competition
This competition was founded by Issette Pearson, (1861-1941) co-founder and secretary of the L.G.U., in 1910.
With the formation of scratch teams and more ladies taking to golf it was founded for the “higher” handicapper 13-30 range. 30 being the highest handicap in those days!
The four counties that compete are Kent, Hertfordshire, Surrey and Middlesex, these being with easy access to London as travel was by train in those days.
It is a group round robin knockout within individual counties progressing to a final within those counties. Winners of each county then play Inter-county semi’s and finals to decide the overall winners.
2021 Review

Again a fabulous start winning our first two matches 6/1, 51/2/11/2 but again with further lockdowns the competition was cancelled.
Pearson match report 2021/2022
This season we started sadly with a loss 4/3 to a very strong West Herts team, however, we then went on to beat them 6/1 at home.
