The Bowen Island Golf Club Women’s League scored a major victory on the links last year by claiming the B.C. Zone 4 Interclub Team Match Play title.

Zone 4 is made up of 12 teams spanning 36 golf courses across Vancouver, Burnaby, Richmond, Delta, North and West Vancouver, Squamish, Whistler, Pemberton, the lower Sunshine Coast, Bowen Island, and Point Roberts. The Bowen squad wrapped up the year with 169.5 points, clearing second place by a whole five points.

“Participating in this fun format offers friendly competition, a chance to travel to local courses, and of course to host teams coming to Bowen. Friendship and laughs are guaranteed,” says team member Liz Morrison.

Womens’ League members include Ruth Openshaw, Annabelle Pykalo, Karen Moles, Jane Skipsey, Colleen O’Neil, Liz Morrison, Kathy Clarke, Jennifer Harris, Cheryl Bailie, Jane Kellett, Alice Jennings, Sheila McArthur, Joanne Gassman, Colleen Huskisson, Sarah Graham, Laura McGregor, Susan Alexander, and Kathy Thom.

The new season starts in April, and anyone interested in joining the Women’s League is encouraged to reach out to a member or the golf club to learn more.
