Successful weekend at Woodhall Spa for England Boys

By brianroake1

Eight of the core England Boys Squad and four invitees spent a very successful weekend at Woodhall Spa. Saturday saw a combination of short and long game skill tests along with media training in the form of interviews with each player. These interviews were then judged by five officials, Brian Roake, Graham Walker, Tony Sephton, Les Walker and Tommy Flinn. The best interview was adjudged to be Ben Taylor, this can bee seen below.

Sunday morning all players had a club fitting session by both Titleist and Ping. Our sincere thanks go to both companies for their excellent work with the players and on a Sunday!

The twelve players were split into two teams over the weekend and were captained by Chris Lloyd and Adam Carson. Chris’s team was victorious by 128 points. Chris also won the par 3 tournament over 16 holes with an 8 under par 40.

The next training session for the Under 18 Squad will be warm weather training at Arcos at the end of the month. Players attending the weekend will be: James Burnett, Oliver Carr, Adam Carson, Sebastian Crookall-Nixon, Curtis Griffiths, Liam Harper, Nick Newbold and Ben Taylor.
