Cecil letich Report
Once again the Cecil Leitch team had a great day when we beat Kettering in a Home match 4 games to 3.
The team was Di Murkin, Alison Shine, Denise Brady, Laura Steedman, Geeta Patel, Vivienne McManus and Dawn Mallard-Parker.
This was a very satisfactory result and now puts us in the lead in Divison 1.
On the Monday, 4 July we had our last match which was against Northampton, Away. They are a tough team especially on their home ground, but our team will certainly do their best to get a win. Results from this match will appear in next week's newsletter.

Is it the 'Big Three' or the 'Big Four'?
Just when you thought Jason Day, Jordan Spieth and Rory McIlroy were all set to divvy up golf's biggest prizes, along comes big-hitting Dustin Johnson. The US champion is now number two in the world and looks to be finally fulfilling his potential after another fine win at the weekend - and a big one too at the WGC Bridgestone Invitational. For years Johnson seemed destined to be the bridesmaid, now he's one of the favourites to go back-to-back in Majors and take the Claret Jug back across the Atlantic.
Next week's Open at Royal Troon could be a classic
Which leads us on to a new section of our website - our regular poll, and we want your votes. Tell us who you think will win the Open Championship next week; will it be Day, Johnson, Spieth, McIlroy or A.N. Other?
